The following series is based on:
linux-next                e083feb Merge branch 'acpi-next' into linux-next
from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git
In addition, this series depends on the following to apply cleanly:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1649621/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1663331/

This series allows the devfreq governors to be built as modules and switched
on the fly using sysfs controls (inspired by cpufreq's ability to do the same).

Tested on BeagleBoard XM(3730) with dummy driver[1]:

Nishanth Menon (7):
  PM / devfreq: export update_devfreq
  PM / devfreq: provide hooks for governors to be registered
  PM / devfreq: register governors with devfreq framework
  PM / devfreq: map devfreq drivers to governor using name
  PM / devfreq: governors: add GPL module license and allow module
    build
  PM / devfreq: allow sysfs governor node to switch governor
  PM / devfreq: Add sysfs node to expose available governors
