I'm no fan of the way powerpc does bit numbering, but don't flip it
around here -- you'll just cause confusion.

Better yet, this interface should take real time units rather than a
timebase bit.

Also, you disable the power saving mode if the maximum interval is
selected, but the documentation doesn't say that -- and the
documentation should be in the code (or other easily findable place),
not just in the commit message.

Why is this in asm?  And shouldn't this go in the cputable somehow?

The difference between query/show and control/store is a bit awkward...
I'd s/query/do_show/ and s/control/do_store/ (or local_ or other
appropriate prefix).

Reading a sysfs value should just return the value, not a human-readable
string.

I'd make these 0600, given their ability to spam other CPUs with IPIs
even on read.

I think I said this earlier, but it'd be nice to have a "late cpu setup"
cputable callback -- but failing that, this should be called from
register_cpu_online() which is where other CPU sysfs attributes are
created.
