After a period of RFC for this driver, I think it is ready
for inclusion in the platform-driver-x86 tree, hopefully to
be staged in the next merge window into Linus's tree.

------------------------------------------------------------

IBM Real-Time "SMI Free" mode driver

This driver supports the Real-Time Linux (RTL) BIOS feature.
The RTL feature allows non-fatal System Management Interrupts
(SMIs) to be disabled on supported IBM platforms and is
intended to be coupled with a user-space daemon to monitor
the hardware in a way that can be prioritized and scheduled
to better suit the requirements for the system.

The Device is presented as a special "_RTL_" table to the OS
in the Extended BIOS Data Area.  There is a simple protocol
for entering and exiting the mode at runtime.  This driver
creates a simple sysfs interface to allow a simple entry and
exit from RTL mode in the UFI/BIOS.

Since the driver is specific to IBM SystemX hardware (x86-
based servers) it only builds on x86 builds.  To reduce the
risk of loading on the wrong hardware, the module uses DMI
information and checks a list of servers that are known to
work.

Add a software rfkill switch for the WLAN interface in the OLPC XO-1
laptop. It uses the OLPC embedded controller to cut/restore power to
the Marvell WLAN chip on the motherboard.

The hdaps driver isn't a hardware monitoring driver, so it shouldn't
live under driver/hwmon. drivers/platform/x86 seems much more
appropriate, as the driver is only useful on x86 laptops.

The makefile didn't get updated when the driver changed name, which broke
the build.

Since the platform drivers doing more for laptops than just using specific
ACPI device. It will be good to change the name from *_acpi to *-laptop.

Moorestown has PMIC chip which contains GPIO blocks. The PMIC chip is
connected to Langwell by SPI interface. So this GPIO driver will be regarded
as SPI GPIO expander though the actual GPIO access is through IPC and SRAM.
The SPI master contoller will probe this device driver by parsing SPIB table.

Cleaned up for new IPC, GPE removed and some printk and other tidying by
Alan Cox. Fixes for points noted by Matthew Garrett

Intel Core i3/5 platforms with integrated graphics support both CPU and
GPU turbo mode.  CPU turbo mode is opportunistic: the CPU will use any
available power to increase core frequencies if thermal headroom is
available.  The GPU side is more manual however; the graphics driver
must monitor GPU power and temperature and coordinate with a core
thermal driver to take advantage of available thermal and power headroom
in the package.

The intelligent power sharing (IPS) driver is intended to coordinate
this activity by monitoring MCP (multi-chip package) temperature and
power, allowing the CPU and/or GPU to increase their power consumption,
and thus performance, when possible.  The goal is to maximize
performance within a given platform's TDP (thermal design point).

The IPC (inter processor communications) is used to provide the
communications between kernel and system control units on some embedded
Intel x86 platforms.
