Subject: [PATCH] Octeon 6xxx: Add Power Throttling support for CN6xxx and above

This patch adds the sysfs primitives for power throttling.

Octeon2 supports dynamic power control which aids to cut down power
consumption. The code exposes a "percentage" power throttling
limiter by means of /sys interface for each available cpu. Setting
this value to 0 will set power consumption to a minimum as it will
only execute a couple instructions every PERIOD as set in the
PowThrottle register. If set to 100% for that particular cpu, it
will consume maximum power.
