Hi there,
Well, I did not modify the content of the patch. It can be 'git am' on ubuntu kernel without conflict.
This patch is directly from git://git.linaro.org/amitarora/powertop.git
commit cc1aaff10ee9046b835441d295fda498f68cb1ac
Author: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com>

alpm kernel patch
Based on my understanding, powertop only uses it to collect harddisk's status. so if it is risky to merge to current ubuntu kernel, we may wait a better version of this from Arjan.

This looks like a modified verison of the patch which Arjan submittedOn Tue, 2010-09-14 at 10:37 -0600, Tim Gardner wrote:

> Yong Shen - is this patch faithful to the version released by Arjan?
upstream a while back, ie Nov 2009:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/43337
Has there been any recent follow up to get this accepted upstream?
Applied to Maverick linux master but marked as SAUCE.

> OK since accounting is not on by default. Note that statistics gathering
> within the PHY interrupt handler could have an impact on throughput.
> This is definitely a SAUCE patch since its not upstream, and is likely
