ACPI: fix processor throttling set error
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9704 When echo some invalid values to /proc/acpi/processor/*/throttling, there isn't any error info returned, on the contray, it sets throttling value to some T* successfully, obviously, this is incorrect, a correct way should be to let it fail and return error info. This patch fixed the aforementioned issue, it also enables /proc/acpi/processor/*/throttling to accept such values as 't0' and 'T0', it also strictly limits /proc/acpi/processor/*/throttling only to accept "*", "t*" and "T*", "*" is the throttling state value the processor can support, current, it is 0 - 7. Before applying this patch, the test result is below: [root@localhost acpi]# cat /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/throttling state count: 8 active state: T1 state available: T0 to T7 states: T0: 100% *T1:
