Frans Pop 2a908002c7 ACPI processor: force throttling state when BIOS returns incorrect value
If the BIOS reports an invalid throttling state (which seems to be
fairly common after system boot), a reset is done to state T0.
Because of a check in acpi_processor_get_throttling_ptc(), the reset
never actually gets executed, which results in the error reoccurring
on every access of for example /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/throttling.

Add a 'force' option to acpi_processor_set_throttling() to ensure
the reset really takes effect.

Addresses http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13389

This patch, together with the next one, fixes a regression introduced in
2.6.30, listed on the regression list. They have been available for 2.5
months now in bugzilla, but have not been picked up, despite various
reminders and without any reason given.

Google shows that numerous people are hitting this issue. The issue is in
itself relatively minor, but the bug in the code is clear.

The patches have been in all my kernels and today testing has shown that
throttling works correctly with the patches applied when the system
overheats (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13918#c14).
