These have been discussed intensively on the trace/perf lists recently.
Outcome: cleanup power events in a (several kernel rounds) compatible way.

Ingo: As discussed, it would be great to see these in some tree/branch
soon as I'd like to base further cpu_idle cleanups/fixes on top.
Also Jean is waiting for these with further work/patches.

Thanks,

Thomas
