+Description: Umwait control
+
+ enable_c02: Read/write interface to control umwait C0.2 state
+ Read returns C0.2 state status:
+ 0: C0.2 is disabled
+ 1: C0.2 is enabled
+
+ Write 'y' or '1' or 'on' to enable C0.2 state.
+ Write 'n' or '0' or 'off' to disable C0.2 state.
+
+ The interface is case insensitive.
+
+ max_time: Read/write interface to control umwait maximum time
+ in TSC-quanta that the CPU can reside in either C0.1
+ or C0.2 state. The time is an unsigned 32-bit number.
+ Note that a value of zero means there is no limit.
+ Low order two bits must be zero.
