Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as base
Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base. It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and the base is: commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2 Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> Date: Sat Jul 25 12:13:34 2015 +0200 Prepare v4.1.3-rt3 Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We should apply another opnfv project repo in future. Change-Id: I87543d81c9df70d99c5001fbdf646b202c19f423 Signed-off-by: Yunhong Jiang <yunhong.jiang@intel.com>

+Kernel driver fam15h_power
+==========================
+
+Supported chips:
+* AMD Family 15h Processors
+
+ Prefix: 'fam15h_power'
+ Addresses scanned: PCI space
+ Datasheets:
+ BIOS and Kernel Developer's Guide (BKDG) For AMD Family 15h Processors
+ (not yet published)
+
+Author: Andreas Herrmann <herrmann.der.user@googlemail.com>
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver permits reading of registers providing power information
+of AMD Family 15h processors.
+
+For AMD Family 15h processors the following power values can be
+calculated using different processor northbridge function registers:
+
+* BasePwrWatts: Specifies in watts the maximum amount of power
+ consumed by the processor for NB and logic external to the core.
+* ProcessorPwrWatts: Specifies in watts the maximum amount of power
+ the processor can support.
+* CurrPwrWatts: Specifies in watts the current amount of power being
+ consumed by the processor.
+
+This driver provides ProcessorPwrWatts and CurrPwrWatts:
+* power1_crit (ProcessorPwrWatts)
+* power1_input (CurrPwrWatts)
+
+On multi-node processors the calculated value is for the entire
+package and not for a single node. Thus the driver creates sysfs
+attributes only for internal node0 of a multi-node processor.
