commit cd015117fe1e98a00785052cf9fb850c12796c57
Let us see if it helps intel_pstate work correctly with "powersave"
governor and not keep the CPU's frequency at maximum at all times.
The modules are not needed on the systems without MEI hardware, so there
is no need to keep them in memory.
Additionally, if mei and mei-me are loaded on such systems, they have
reportedly caused problems with hibernation. It is better to let the
system decide whether to load them and to have an opportunity to
blacklist them if needed.
Git log is a better place to track changes. All due credits to the
authors of these changes (as opposed to the commiters) should also be
made there, when it matters.
Based on the update by Nicolo' Costanza
(https://abf.rosalinux.ru/nicco/Kernel-3.10.40-1) but without 2
patches:
add-support-for-controlling-charge-thresholds-for-newer-thinkpads.patch
enable-thinkpad-hardware-mute-control.patch
They are not in mainline yet and, at least for the first one, a new
variant of the patch is in progress at the moment.
We can take them later.
The kernel was updated to 3.10.34.
