[PATCH v2 2/2] intel_pstate: Set core to min P state during core offline

From: dirk . brandewie
Date: Fri Mar 14 2014 - 17:04:48 EST


From: Dirk Brandewie <dirk.j.brandewie@xxxxxxxxx>

Change to use ->stop() callback to do clean up during CPU
hotplug. The requested P state for an offline core will be used by the
hardware coordination function to select the package P state. If the
core is under load when it is offlined it will fix the package P state
floor to the requested P state of offline core.
