Initially, the cpu_cooling device for ARM was changed by adding a new
policy inserting idle cycles. The intel_powerclamp driver does a
similar action.
Instead of implementing idle injections privately in the cpu_cooling
device, move the idle injection code in a dedicated framework and give
the opportunity to other frameworks to make use of it.
The framework relies on the smpboot kthreads which handles via its
main loop the common code for hotplugging and [un]parking.
This code was previously tested with the cpu cooling device and went
through several iterations. It results now in split code and API
exported in the header file. It was tested with the cpu cooling device
with success.

The Intel Running Average Power Limit (RAPL) technology provides platform
software with the ability to monitor, control, and get notifications on
power usage.
This feature is present in all Sandy Bridge and later Intel processors.
Newer models allow more fine grained controls to be applied. In RAPL,
power control is divided into domains, which include package, DRAM
controller, CPU core (Power Plane 0), graphics uncore (power plane 1), etc.
The purpose of this driver is to expose the RAPL settings to userspace.
Overall, RAPL fits in the new powercap class driver in that platform
level power capping controls are exposed via this generic interface.
This driver is based on an earlier patch from Zhang Rui.
However, while the previous work was mainly focused on thermal monitoring
the focus here is on the usability from user space perspective.

The power capping framework providing a consistent interface between the
kernel and user space that allows power capping drivers to expose their
settings to user space in a uniform way.
The overall design of the framework is described in the documentation
added by the previous patch in this series.
