Patch 4 covers the changes necessary to the PowerNow! driver
to make it correctly associate shared cores under Xen.
Should we have a copy of that file in powernow-k8-xen.c? Can the patched file work correctly in a native Linux build?

If I need to change one function in driver/cpufreq/cpufreq_ondemand.c (to use Rik's new getidletime platform hypercall), do I need to make an entire new file or can I just add it inline?

#ifdef is no Linux favorite, but it is far better than
cloning a file.
