* [PATCH v3 03/11] x86/intel_pstate: add new policy fields and a new driver interface

In order to better support future Intel processors, intel_pstate
changes to use percentage values to tune P-states. The intel_pstate
driver uses its own internal governor, and it is recorded in the
"policy->policy" field. The setpolicy driver interface is used to
configure the intel_pstate internal policy. The __cpufreq_set_policy
needs to be intercepted to use the setpolicy driver if it exists.

The perf_limts struct is included in the per-CPU policy struct, so
that each CPU can be managed individually by the xenpm tool.

For one you leave all other data->limits fields uninitialized - please
use "data->limits = policy->limits". And then I don't see why this
should be done inside the if() - there's no obvious connection
between ->setpolicy being non-NULL and ->limits having meaning
to the driver - this is solely your intended _use_ model.

Both bool_t I suppose.

This field isn't being used anywhere here. Please add it upon first use.
