But if i'm not wrong it also tries to enable laptop mode and other possible 
powersaving goodies to minimize the power usage (at least spec says so). 

But one may just want to use this feature (and also others) for different 
purposes (like overheat protection), what you think about providing all these 
(sched powersave, cpu online/offlining, laptop mode, maybe 
usb/bluetooth/wireless power management goodies etc) as seperate methods 
instead of bundled one?

Cheers
