What i didn't agree with was the dependency on the acpi P-state driver
for single socket multi-core systems, where in the original post of this
thread, Joshua was stating that smp systems required that driver.
Later it was found that the acpi p-state driver was only being used to
enforce the dependency on the acpi_processor driver ...which is the
actual driver we care about (dependency wise).

So yes, I do agree with your patch, in so far as my experience with the
hardware.
