Care to resend your patches in the proper format, through email so that
we can see them, and possibly get some testing in -mm if they look sane?

Greg,
   here's the patch that leverages the cpufreq notifier lists for
driver PRE and POST
change functions.  I'm also rebasing to 2.6.18-rc7 and making changes Pavel
suggested about just having suspend states in /sys/power/state and moving
the operating point control file down under
/sys/power/operating_states directory.
