It works fine on my Acer Ferrari 3400 (Mobile Athlon64 with Oakville 
core).  My acpi_cnq driver is obsolete now. :-)  It's great to see 
the feature is beautifully merged and complete.

BTW, I have really minor and cosmetic comment.  Official names are 
PowerNow! (for mobile) and Cool`n'Quiet (for desktop). ;-)
