Hi Nicolas,
As we talked on IRC, I created a bundle file which contains three commits for powertop kernel patch. Please review.
Thanks Yong

Those patches don't apply as is, and I prefer not venturing into merge conflict attempts.
What I'd suggest is:
- get the stable linaro tree from git://
git.linaro.org/kernel/linux-linaro-2.6.35.git
cherry-pick the upstream patch with 'git cherry-pick -x 8d4b9d1bf'
fix the conflicts, then commit
apply and commit the other patches on top
test _this_ resulting tree
put the result somewhere for me to pull.

Hi John/Yong,
Could you work with the Ubuntu kernel team to get these patches merged into their tree?
Regards, Amit

only one patch, linux-2.6.35-rc4-annotate-device-pm.patch is involved
in
2.6.36, at 8d4b9d1bfef117862a2889dec4dac227068544c9. So we may still need the rest two.

Hi there,
Power management WG is invistigating on a tool named PowerTOP,
which can
spit out real time data on various aspects of a running system, in
terms
of power related information. However, occasionally some PowerTOP features need kernel patch.
We'd
like users to be able to use these latest features without having to
wait up
to 3 months for Linus to make a release with the kernel portion -- as
the
original patch developer(s) said. There are totally 3 patches which I had already enclosed them in
the
attachment. Except vfs.patch, the rest two are original and can be applied on linaro kernel without any changes. vfs.patch is changed a little
from
original one to adapt current linaro kernel. Hope John would give it a thought to merge these patch in Linaro
kernel.
I would be interested in them too!
If I'm not mistaken, John is getting my kernel and adding the
necessary
packaging to it. So those patches would probably make more sense
being
carried into the base Linaro repository that John is using.
