+Subject: [PATCH] x60: restyle _CST table, add C4 state
+
+First of all requesting low power acpi c-states
+has two software interfaces:
+Using P_LVLx I/O reads or using equivalent MWAIT requersts.
+Since newer intel boards in coreboot use MWAIT, I tried to
+make the x60 c-states consistent with that.
+
+The C4 state is a lower power state that is only entered
+when both cores request it, else the core remains in C3.
+The power and latency are arbitrary but according to
+documentation the OS is supposed to handle this fine.
+
+In practice the x60 seems not to use noticable less power
+with c4 enabled.
+
+TEST= Build and boot platform. See if there is a state4
+in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/
