Subject: [PATCH 0/1] cpuidle: allow to disable C states of the ladder governor 
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org

Hi,

when trying to disable a specific C state in order to improve the
idle responsiveness of a system but still enjoy some power saving,
we noted that writing to the related sysfs variable had no effect.

This patch allows to disable C states of the ladder governor.

	-Carsten.
