+Since roughly mid-2010 several new ALPS touchpads have been released and

+have enough behavior differences that the alps_model_data definition

+adequate. The design choices were to re-define the alps_model_data
+table, with the risk of regression testing existing devices, or isolate
+the new devices outside of the alps_model_data table. The latter design
+choice was made. The new touchpad signatures are named: "Rushmore",
+"Pinnacle", and "Dolphin", which you will see in the alps.c code.
+For the purposes of this document, this group of ALPS touchpads will
+generically be called "new ALPS touchpads".

+We experimented with probing the ACPI interface _HID (Hardware ID)/_CID
+(Compatibility ID) definition as a way to uniquely identify the

+1.1 What is an Operating Performance Point (OPP)?
+
Complex SoCs of today consists of a multiple sub-modules working in conjunction.
In an operational system executing varied use cases, not all modules in the SoC
need to function at their highest performing frequency all the time. To
facilitate this, sub-modules in a SoC are grouped into domains, allowing some
-domains to run at lower voltage and frequency while other domains are loaded

+voltage/frequency pairs that are higher.
+
+The set of discrete tuples consisting of frequency and voltage pairs that
the device will support per domain are called Operating Performance Points or
OPPs.
+As an example:
+Let us consider an MPU device which supports the following:
+{300MHz at minimum voltage of 1V}, {800MHz at minimum voltage of 1.2V},
+{1GHz at minimum voltage of 1.3V}
+
+We can represent these as three OPPs as the following {Hz, uV} tuples:
+{300000000, 1000000}
+{800000000, 1200000}
+{1000000000, 1300000}
+
+1.2 Operating Performance Points Library

OPP library provides a set of helper functions to organize and query the OPP
information. The library is located in drivers/base/power/opp.c and the header
is located in include/linux/opp.h. OPP library can be enabled by enabling
