Merge tag 'pm-for-3.7-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
Pull power management updates from Rafael J Wysocki: - Improved system suspend/resume and runtime PM handling for the SH TMU, CMT and MTU2 clock event devices (also used by ARM/shmobile). - Generic PM domains framework extensions related to cpuidle support and domain objects lookup using names. - ARM/shmobile power management updates including improved support for the SH7372's A4S power domain containing the CPU core. - cpufreq changes related to AMD CPUs support from Matthew Garrett, Andre Przywara and Borislav Petkov. - cpu0 cpufreq driver from Shawn Guo. - cpufreq governor fixes related to the relaxing of limit from Michal Pecio. - OMAP cpufreq updates from Axel Lin and Richard Zhao. - cpuidle ladder governor fixes related to the disabling of states from Carsten Emde and me. - Runtime PM core updates related to the interactions with the system suspend core from Alan Stern and Kevin Hilman. - Wakeup sources modification allowing more helper functions to be called from interrupt context from John Stultz and additional diagnostic code from Todd Poynor. - System suspend error code path fix from Feng Hong. Fixed up conflicts in cpufreq/powernow-k8 that stemmed from the workqueue fixes conflicting fairly badly with the removal of support for hardware P-state chips. The changes were independent but somewhat intertwined. * tag 'pm-for-3.7-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (76 commits) Revert "PM QoS: Use spinlock in the per-device PM QoS constraints code" PM / Runtime: let rpm_resume() succeed if RPM_ACTIVE, even when disabled, v2 cpuidle: rename function name "__cpuidle_register_driver", v2 cpufreq: OMAP: Check IS_ERR() instead of NULL for omap_device_get_by_hwmod_name cpuidle: remove some empty lines PM: Prevent runtime suspend during system resume PM QoS: Use spinlock in the per-device PM QoS constraints code PM / Sleep: use resume event when call dpm_resume_early cpuidle / ACPI : move cpuidle_device field out of the acpi_processor_power structure ACPI / processor: remove pointless variable initialization ACPI / processor: remove unused function parameter cpufreq: OMAP: remove loops_per_jiffy recalculate for smp sections: fix section conflicts in drivers/cpufreq cpufreq: conservative: update frequency when limits are relaxed cpufreq / ondemand: update frequency when limits are relaxed properly __init-annotate pm_sysrq_init() cpufreq: Add a generic cpufreq-cpu0 driver PM / OPP: Initialize OPP table from device tree ARM: add cpufreq transiton notifier to adjust loops_per_jiffy for smp cpufreq: Remove support for hardware P-state chips from powernow-k8 ...

+Description: Processor frequency boosting control

+ This switch controls the boost setting for the whole system.
+ Boosting allows the CPU and the firmware to run at a frequency
