+Description:
+ The /sys/devices/.../lpss_ltr/ directory is only present for

+ (LPSS). If present, it contains attributes containing the LTR
+ mode and the values of LTR registers of the device.

+Date: March 2013
+Contact: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
+Description:
+ The /sys/devices/.../lpss_ltr/ltr_mode attribute contains an
+ integer number (0 or 1) indicating whether or not the devices'
+ LTR functionality is working in the software mode (1).
+
+ This attribute is read-only. If the device's runtime PM status
+ is not "active", attempts to read from this attribute cause
+ -EAGAIN to be returned.

+Description:
+ The /sys/devices/.../lpss_ltr/auto_ltr attribute contains the
+ current value of the device's AUTO_LTR register (raw)
+ represented as an 8-digit hexadecimal number.
+
+ This attribute is read-only. If the device's runtime PM status
+ is not "active", attempts to read from this attribute cause
+ -EAGAIN to be returned.

+What: /sys/firmware/acpi/hotplug/
+Date: February 2013
+Contact: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
+Description:
+ There are separate hotplug profiles for different classes of
+ devices supported by ACPI, such as containers, memory modules,
+ processors, PCI root bridges etc. A hotplug profile for a given
+ class of devices is a collection of settings defining the way
+ that class of devices will be handled by the ACPI core hotplug
+ code. Those profiles are represented in sysfs as subdirectories
+ of /sys/firmware/acpi/hotplug/.
+
+ The following setting is available to user space for each
+ hotplug profile:
+
+ enabled: If set, the ACPI core will handle notifications of
+ hotplug events associated with the given class of
+ devices and will allow those devices to be ejected with
+ the help of the _EJ0 control method. Unsetting it
+ effectively disables hotplug for the correspoinding
+ class of devices.
+
+ The value of the above attribute is an integer number: 1 (set)
+ or 0 (unset). Attempts to write any other values to it will
+ cause -EINVAL to be returned.
