[2.5. PATCH] cpufreq: Intel Coppermines -- the saga continues.
The detection process for speedstep-enabled Pentium III Coppermines is
considered proprietary by Intel. The attempt to detect this
capability using MSRs failed. So, users need to pass the option
"speedstep_coppermine=3D1" to the kernel (boot option or parameter) if
they own a SpeedStep capable PIII Coppermine processor. Tualatins work
as before.
