    cpufreq: Intel Coppermines -- the saga continues.
    
    The detection process for speedstep-enabled Pentium III Coppermines is
    considered proprietary by Intel.  The attempt to detect this capability
    using MSRs failed.
    
    So, users need to pass the option "speedstep_coppermine=1" to the kernel
    (boot option or parameter) if they own a SpeedStep capable PIII
    Coppermine processor.  Tualatins work as before.
