This is a part of a patchset implementing a new feature, rtla idle
state disabling, see [1]. It seems it was included in this stable
queue and also the one for 6.6 by mistake.

Also, the patch by itself does not do anything, because it depends on
preceding commits from the patchset to enable HAVE_LIBCPUPOWER_SUPPORT
and on following commits to actually implement the functionality in
the rtla command line interface.

Perhaps AUTOSEL picked it due to some merge conflicts with other
patches? I don't know of any though.
