I am fine with making it into a small series of commits which move 1
subsystem at a time (fbc, cxsr, rc6, fifo, wm, ...). Would everyone be
happy with that? I think Daniel wanted to move everything in 1 commit,
hence this initial approach from my side, but yes, as functions are spread
all around the place it makes very hard to review the patch.

But in general, does this idea of intel_pm.c looks interesting, or anyone
has anything against it?
