Bug#711087: src:linux: Enable CONFIG_X86_INTEL_PSTATE



Package: src:linux
Version: 3.9-4
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

Since kernel 3.9.x the new pstate scaling driver is available (and is preferred
when selected) for sandy bridge cpus and it will support newer ones in future
releases.

Standing by what kernel devs say it's a great improvement over cpufreq which is
no longer fit.

It would be nice to have enabled.
