I guess I'm a little unclear on the policy here. My understanding is that it
is acceptable for the requested frequency to remain above min if we are in
RC6, because the actual frequency is 0 MHz in that state and so we are
getting the most power savings anyway. With this in mind, I didn't want to
fail a system in which that occurred. Taking the forcewake allows us to
verify that turbo hardware is working correctly on its own merits
(particularly the interrupts). If the policy is to require that requested
frequency always go to min at idle (RC6 or not), then I will remove the
forcewake.
