-1.2 DEPRECATED trace API
-------------------------
-
-A new Kconfig option CONFIG_EVENT_POWER_TRACING_DEPRECATED with the default value of
-'y' has been created. This allows the legacy trace power API to be used conjointly
-with the new trace API.
-The Kconfig option, the old trace API (in include/trace/events/power.h) and the
-old trace points will disappear in a future release (namely 2.6.41).

-power_start		"type=%lu state=%lu cpu_id=%lu"
-power_frequency		"type=%lu state=%lu cpu_id=%lu"
-power_end		"cpu_id=%lu"

-The 'type' parameter takes one of those macros:
- . POWER_NONE	= 0,
- . POWER_CSTATE	= 1,	/* C-State */
- . POWER_PSTATE	= 2,	/* Frequency change or DVFS */
-
-The 'state' parameter is set depending on the type:
- . Target C-state for type=POWER_CSTATE,
- . Target frequency for type=POWER_PSTATE,
-
-power_end is used to indicate the exit of a state, corresponding to the latest
-power_start event.
