58	  The powernow-k8 driver used to provide a sysfs knob called "cpb"
59	  to disable the Core Performance Boosting feature of AMD CPUs. This
60	  file has now been superseded by the more generic "boost" entry.

145	  This adds AMD-specific powersave bias function to the ondemand
146	  governor, which allows it to make more power-conscious frequency
147	  change decisions based on feedback from hardware (available on AMD
148	  Family 16h and above).
149
150	  Hardware feedback tells software how "sensitive" to frequency changes
151	  the CPUs' workloads are. CPU-bound workloads will be more sensitive

174	  This is deprecated and this functionality is now merged into
175	  acpi_cpufreq (X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ). Use that driver instead of
176	  speedstep_centrino.
177	  This adds the CPUFreq driver for Enhanced SpeedStep enabled

227	  processors.  When enabled it will lower CPU temperature by skipping
228	  clocks.
229
230	  This driver should be only used in exceptional
231	  circumstances when very low power is needed because it causes severe
232	  slowdowns and noticeable latencies.  Normally Speedstep should be used
233	  instead.

280	  This adds the CPUFreq driver for VIA C7 processors.  However, this driver
281	  does not have any safeguards to prevent operating the CPU out of spec
