    s390/cpu: remove cpu "capabilities" sysfs attribute · b9e3f776
    Heiko Carstens 提交于
    It has been a big mistage to add the capabilities attribute to the
    cpus in sysfs:
    First the attribute only contains the cpu capability of primary cpus,
    which however is not necessarily (or better: unlikely) the type of
    cpu the kernel runs on, which is typically an IFL.
    In addition all information that is necessary is available in
    /proc/sysinfo already. So this attribute partially duplicated
    informations.
    So programs should look into the sysinfo file to retrieve all
    informations they are interested in.
    
    Since with this kernel release also the powersavings cpu attributes
    are removed this seems to be a good opportunity to remove another
    broken interface.
