Added power cap framework documentation. This explains the use of power capping framework, sysfs and programming interface. There are two documents: - Documentation/power/powercap/powercap.txt : Explains use case and APIs. - Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-powercap: Explains ABIs.

Description:
|
|
A <control type> is a unique name under /sys/class/powercap.
|
|
Here <control type> determines how the power is going to be
|
|
controlled. A <control type> can contain multiple power zones.

Description:
|
|
A power zone is a single or a collection of devices, which can
|
|
be independently monitored and controlled. A power zone sysfs
|
|
entry is qualified with the name of the <control type>.
|
|
E.g. intel-rapl:0:1:1.

|
|
Description:
|
|
Power zones may be organized in a hierarchy in which child
|
|
power zones provide monitoring and control for a subset of
|
|
devices under the parent. For example, if there is a parent
|
|
power zone for a whole CPU package, each CPU core in it can
|
|
be a child power zone.
