Ok.  Thats not fixed it either.

Confirmed that it is caused by the patch below, backing it out sorts things:

    sched-group-cpu-power-setup-cleanup.patch

Did a fair bit of analysis of this problem, and it seems that the issue
is where we initialise the NUMA domains.  For each cpu we initialise a
domain spanning the whole machine, but ordered starting at the node in
which we start.  In the original code we used the following to
initialise each of these groups:

        for (i = 0; i < MAX_NUMNODES; i++)
                init_numa_sched_groups_power(sched_group_nodes[i]);

init_numa_sched_groups_power iterated over all of the groups within the
domain and added up power based on the physical packages.  Now we use:

        for_each_cpu_mask(i, *cpu_map) {
                sd = &per_cpu(node_domains, i);
                init_sched_groups_power(i, sd);
        }

init_sched_groups_power only thinks in terms of the first group of the
domain, which leaves the subsequent groups in the domain at power 0.

I've tried reverting just that part of the change (as attached) and that
also seems to fix things.  However, are we correct in all the other
cases ignoring the subsequent groups?  I am also not sure if this will
change the purpose of the patch?  It seems unlikely but ...

Suresh I guess I'll punt to you :).
