The ACPI processor driver is currently tied too closely
to the ACPI P-states (PSS) and other related constructs
for controlling CPU performance.
The newer ACPI specification (v5.1 onwards) introduces
alternative methods to PSS. These new mechanisms are
described within each ACPI Processor object and so they
need to be scanned whenever a new Processor object is detected.
This patch introduces a new Kconfig symbol to allow for
finer configurability among the two options for controlling
performance states. There is no change in functionality and
the option is auto-selected by the architectures which support it.
The following patchwork introduces CPPC: A newer method of
controlling CPU performance. The OS is not expected to support
CPPC and PSS at runtime. So the kconfig option lets us make
these two mutually exclusive at compile time.

- support it. It is required by several flavors of cpufreq

+ idle drivers.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here:
the module will be called processor.
