Re: [PATCH] intel_idle: Add CPU model 54 (Atom N2000 series)

From: Len Brown

Applied.

Note that the difference that will be noticed most will be that ACPI
on this kind of box typically offers the deepest C-state only when
on DC, and disables it on DC. intel_idle offers it no matter
if the box is on AC or DC.
