kernel-2.6.18-238.el5.src.rpm

From: Prarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com>
Subject: [RHEL5 PATCH]: BZ 184896 PAL_GET_PSTATE implementation
Date: Fri, 1 Dec 2006 14:00:19 -0500
Bugzilla: 184896
Message-Id: <20061201190019.9129.53008.sendpatchset@prarit.boston.redhat.com>
Changelog: ia64: PAL_GET_PSTATE implementation


PAL_GET_PSTATE accepts a type argument to return different kinds of
frequency information.
Refer: Intel Itanium®Architecture Software Developer's Manual -
Volume 2: System Architecture, Revision 2.2
(http://developer.intel.com/design/itanium/manuals/245318.htm)

Add the support for type argument and use Instantaneous frequency
in the acpi driver.

Also fix a bug, where in return value of PAL_GET_PSTATE was getting compared
with 'control' bits instead of 'status' bits.

Fixes BZ 184896.

Tested on an early alpha Montvale by Intel.
