From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx> The intel_idle driver will be modified to use ACPI _CST subsequently and it will need to notify the platform firmware of that if acpi_gbl_FADT.cst_control is set, so add a routine for this purpose, acpi_processor_claim_cst_control(), to acpi_processor.c (so that it is always present which is required by intel_idle) and export it to allow the ACPI processor driver (which is modular) to call it. No intentional functional impact. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
