      hwmon driver for ACPI 4.0 power meters · de584afa
      Darrick J. Wong authored
      
      This driver exposes ACPI 4.0 compliant power meters as hardware monitoring
      devices.  This second revision of the driver also exports the ACPI string
      info as sysfs attributes, a list of the devices that the meter measures,
      and will send ACPI notifications over the ACPI netlink socket.  This
      latest revision only enables the power capping controls if it can be
      confirmed that the power cap can be enforced by the hardware and explains
      how the notification interfaces work.
