Extending power tracing to all cpufreq modules is obviously a good thing.

But why is trace_power_start() adding a CPU ID argument? CPU ids are already 
available and can be sampled via PERF_SAMPLE_CPU if needed. AFAICS only 
power_frequency needs a new 'target_cpu_id' field.

Timechart is maintained by Arjan so we need an ack from him as well. I've seen 
some back and forth in the discussions - what's the technical resolution of 
that?

(Also, there's some whitespace noise in the patch.)

Thanks,
