hwmon: (fam15h_power) Introduce a cpu accumulated power reporting algorithm
This patch introduces an algorithm that computes the average power by reading a delta value of “core power accumulator” register during measurement interval, and then dividing delta value by the length of the time interval. User is able to use power1_average entry to measure the processor power consumption and power1_average_interval entry to set the interval. A simple example: ray@hr-ub:~/tip$ sensors fam15h_power-pci-00c4 Adapter: PCI adapter power1: 19.58 mW (avg = 2.55 mW, interval = 0.01 s) (crit = 15.00 W) ... The result is current average processor power consumption in 10 millisecond. The unit of the result is uWatt.
