- remove unnecessary usage of flags.performance
- remove double check of _PPC in acpi-cpufreq driver as it's handled in
  drivers/acpi/processor.c already
- remove unneeded EXPORT_SYMBOL
- allocation of memory only for probed CPUs
- add unregistration function to the core
- fix OOPS when PST has core_frequency values of zero
- fix cpufreq_get() output
- fix /proc/acpi/processor/*/performance write support [deprecated]

updates the _PPC handling. It is handled as a CPUfreq
policy notifier which adjusts the maximum CPU speed
according to the current platform limit.

from Dominik Brodowski

The acpi cpufreq driver includes a test at startup which detects whether
ACPI P-States are supported on any CPU, and whether transitions work.
However, this test is faulty: it is only run _after_ the acpi driver is
registered, causing race situations. Also, it doesn't save anything _as_ the
driver is already registered. So, it can safely be removed.

The current algorithm used by Linux ACPI for passive thermal management has
two shortcomings:

- if increasing the CPU processing power as a thermal situation goes away,
  throttling states are decreased later than performance states. This is
  not wise -- it should be the opposite ordering of going "up".

- only if the ACPI CPUfreq driver is used, performance states are used.
  A generalized approach would offer passive cooling even if the ACPI
  P-States cpufreq driver cannot be used (faulty BIOS, FixedHW access, etc.)

This fixes a conflicting declaration in xbow.c.

	works without trashing any registers.

This updates the framebuffer docs to reflect the requirement that all
driver names must end in fb.

[FBCON] Fixed the order of which driver is used for the console. Before
the api change the last driver loaded became the default one. Now this is
not the case.

cscope expect to find the list of files used for the database in a file
named cscope.files.  Generate this file as part of 'make cscope'.  This
solves http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1948.

The spinlock debugging feature is supposed to work even on uniprocessor
kernels.  So we need to instantiate kernel_flag regardless of CONFIG_SMP.

The LSM changes broke the error checking for queue lengths in IPC_SET. The LSM check would
set set err to 0, but the next check expected it to still be -EPERM. Result was that
no error was reported, but the new parameters weren't correctly set.
