From 034be8fd645bb77ca623036dc24c790b6cc803e2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andre Przywara Date: Tue, 4 Sep 2012 08:28:04 +0000 Subject: cpufreq: Add warning message to powernow-k8 cpufreq modules are often loaded from init scripts that assume that all recent AMD systems will use powernow-k8. To inform the user of the change of support and ease the transition to acpi-cpufreq, emit a warning message. Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
