    sched_mc is the only power-aware knob in the current scheduler. It's
    far from being perfect but it seems to work on some ARM platform at
    least. You mentioned at the scheduler mini-summit that we need a
    cleaner replacement and everybody has agreed on that point. Is anybody
    working on it yet ? and can we discuss at Plumber's what this
    replacement would look like ?
