* pm-tools:
tools/power turbostat: relax dependency on APERF_MSR
tools/power turbostat: relax dependency on invariant TSC
tools/power turbostat: decode MSR_*_PERF_LIMIT_REASONS
tools/power turbostat: relax dependency on root permission
cpupower Makefile change to help run the tool without 'make install'
Long format options added, though the short ones should still work.
eg. the new "--Counter 0x10" is the same as the old "-C 0x10"
Note this Incompatibility:
Old:
-v displayed verbose debug output
New:
-v and --version simpaly display version
Additional parameters:
-d and --debug display verbose debug output
-h and --help display a help message
Updated turbosat.8 man page accordingly.

Replaced previously open-coded Package C-state Limit decoding
with table-driven decoding. In doing so, updated to match January 2015
"Intel(R) 64 and IA-23 Architectures Software Developer's Manual".
In the past, turbostat would print package C-state residency columns
for all package states supported by the model's architecture, even though
a particular SKU may not support them, or they may be disabled by the BIOS.
Now turbostat will skip printing colunns if MSRs indicate that they are not enabled.
eg. many SKUs don't support PC7, and so that column will no longer be printed.

While turbostat is significantly less useful on systems
with no APERF_MSR, it seems more friendly
to run on such systems and report what we can,
rather than refusing to run.
Update man page to reflect recent changes.

Turbostat can be useful on systems that do not support invariant TSC,
so allow it to run on those systgems.
All arithmetic in turbostat using the TSC value is per-processsor,
so it does not depend on the TSC values being in sync acrosss processors.
Turbostat uses gettimeofday() for the measurement interval
rather than using the TSC directly, so that key metric
is also immune from variable TSC.
Turbostat prints a TSC sanity check column:
TSC_MHz = TSC_delta/interval
If this column is constant and is close to the processor
base frequency, then the TSC is behaving properly.
The other key turbostat columns are calculated this way:
Avg_Mhz = APERF_delta/interval
%Busy = MPERF_delta/TSC_delta
Bzy_MHz = TSC_delta/APERF_delta/MPERF_delta/interval
Tested on Core2 and Core2-Xeon, and so this patch includes
a few other changes to remove the assumption that target
systems are Nehalem and newer.

The Processor generation code-named Haswell
added MSR_{CORE | GFX | RING}_PERF_LIMIT_REASONS
to explain when and how the processor limits frequency.
turbostat -v
will now decode these bits.
Each MSR has an "Active" set of bits which describe
current conditions, and a "Logged" set of bits,
which describe what has happened since last cleared.
Turbostat currently doesn't clear the log bits.

For turbostat to run as non-root, it needs to permissions:
1. read access to /dev/cpu/*/msr
via standard user/group/world file permissions
2. CAP_SYS_RAWIO
eg. # setcap cap_sys_rawio=ep turbostat
Yes, running as root still works.

The cpupower tool, when compiled against libcpupower.so fail's to run as
the linker file path's are missing during compilation. So added changes
in the Makefile to run cpupower tool, which helps us run the tool
without doing a 'make install'.

sysfs_get_idlestate_count() returns an unsigned int. Returning -ENODEV
is not the right thing to do here, and in any case is handled the same
way as if there are no states found.

Some operations, like frequency-set, need root privileges. However,
the way that this is detected is not correct. The getuid() is called,
while in fact geteuid() should be. This way we can allow
distributions or users to set SETUID flags on the cpupower binary if
they want to and let regular users change the cpu frequency governor.

This reverts commit 16b7c275c0.
My previous commit 16b7c275c0 ("tools: cpupower: fix return checks for
sysfs_get_idlestate_count()") was not correct. After looking
at the changelog for cpupower I noticed that Thomas had changed the return of
sysfs_get_idlestate_count() to an unsigned int to simplify the code. The
problem is really that both he (in his original change) and I (in my new
change) missed the obvious that sysfs_get_idlestate_count()
can't return -ENODEV. It should just return 0 for "no c-states".

Red Hat and Fedora use a bug reporting tool that gathers data about
"broken" systems called sosreport. Among other things, it includes the
output of 'cpupower idle-info'. Executing 'cpupower idle-info' on a
system that has cpuidle disabled via 'cpuidle.off=1' results in a 300
second hang in the cpupower application.
ie)
[root@intel-brickland-05]# cpupower idle-info
Could not determine cpuidle driver
Analyzing CPU 0:
Number of idle states: -19
[hang]
The problem is that the cpupower code only checks for a zero return from
sysfs_get_idlestate_count(). The function can return -ENODEV (-19) as
above. This patch fixes callers to sysfs_get_idlestate_count() to check
the right return values.

Pull idle update from Len Brown:
"Two Intel-platform-specific updates to intel_idle, and a cosmetic
tweak to the turbostat utility"
* 'release' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lenb/linux:
tools/power turbostat: tweak whitespace in output format
intel_idle: Broadwell support
intel_idle: Disable Baytrail Core and Module C6 auto-demotion
* pm-tools:
cpupower: Remove redundant error check
cpupower: bench: parse.c: Fix several minor errors
cpupower: mperf monitor: Correct use of ! and &
cpupower: Adjust MAINTAINERS file
PM / tools: cpupower: drop negativity check on unsigned value
Remove double checks, and move the call to print_error to the
first check. Replace break by return, and return 0 on success.

Resolved several minor errors in prepare_config() and made some additional improvements.
Earlier, the risk of file stream that was not closed. Misuse of strncpy, and the use of strncmp with strlen that makes it pointless.
I also check that sscanf has been successful, otherwise continue to the next line. And minimized the use of magic numbers.
This was found using a static code analysis program called cppcheck.

In commit ae91d60ba8, a bug was fixed that
involved converting !x & y to !(x & y). The code below shows the same
pattern, and thus should perhaps be fixed in the same way.
