[PATCH 4/8] ACPI: allow a native cpuidle driver to displace ACPI
in [Kernel]

Prev: udevd high cpu hogging in kernel-2.6.34 git8 to git-13
Next: [PATCH 3/8] cpuidle: make cpuidle_curr_driver static
From: Len Brown on 28 May 2010 02:10 From: Len Brown <len.brown(a)intel.com> The ACPI driver would fail probe when it found that another driver had previously registered with cpuidle. But this is a natural situation, as a native hardware cpuidle driver should be able to bind instead of ACPI, and the ACPI processor driver should be able to handle yielding control of C-states while still handling P-states and T-states. Add a KERN_DEBUG line showing when acpi_idle does successfully register.
