actually.. it needs to/is moving into the driver. This sort of decision
needs to just happen locally in the driver; the idea that you can make
power decisions (rather than policy decisions) on a global level is
just no longer true (if it ever was).

Actually I thought this was already in the 2.6.26-rc kernel series
driver...
