Documentation/ABI: Document umwait control sysfs interfaces
Since two new sysfs interface files are created for umwait control, add an ABI document entry for the files: /sys/devices/system/cpu/umwait_control/enable_c02 /sys/devices/system/cpu/umwait_control/max_time [ tglx: Made the write value instructions readable ] Signed-off-by: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Reviewed-by: Ashok Raj <ashok.raj@intel.com> Cc: "Borislav Petkov" <bp@alien8.de> Cc: "H Peter Anvin" <hpa@zytor.com> Cc: "Andy Lutomirski" <luto@kernel.org> Cc: "Peter Zijlstra" <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: "Tony Luck" <tony.luck@intel.com> Cc: "Ravi V Shankar" <ravi.v.shankar@intel.com> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1560994438-235698-6-git-send-email-fenghua.yu@intel.com

+ 1: C0.2 is enabled
+
+ Write 'y' or '1' or 'on' to enable C0.2 state.
+ Write 'n' or '0' or 'off' to disable C0.2 state.

+ The interface is case insensitive.

+ max_time: Read/write interface to control umwait maximum time
+ in TSC-quanta that the CPU can reside in either C0.1
+ or C0.2 state. The time is an unsigned 32-bit number.
+ Note that a value of zero means there is no limit.
+ Low order two bits must be zero.
