Hi,

Here is a patch that redefines the power events API. The advantages
are: easier maintainance of the kernel and the
user space tools, a cleaner and more generic interface, more
parameters for fine tracing and even documentation!

Thomas, this patch has your patch above merged in ('power-trace: Use
power_switch_state instead of power_start and power_end'). The revised
ACPI patch is coming asap.

The trace points for x86 and OMAP are also udated accordingly.

The pytimechart tool needs an update for the new API. This can be done
as soon as the kernel code gets merged in.

unfortunately this code is changing a userspace ABI... we really shouldn't do that if we can avoid it,
and here we can avoid it.

applications ARE using this stuff!
