Subject: ibmaem: don't query the entire sensor repository when reading energy meter
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.27-rc4~77
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bb15e7f286e3ecf3e85e06ad9b0019096e43a613;p=linux-2.6

ibmaem: don't query the entire sensor repository when reading energy meter

Currently, all sensors are read when the energy meter is queried via
sysfs.  This introduces a considerable amount of delay and variation in
the sysfs reading, which is not desirable when trying to profile energy
use.  Therefore, read only the energy meters when a sysfs query comes in
for them, and don't cache the results so that we always get the latest
reading.
