+What:	x86 floppy disable_hlt
+When:	2012
+Why:	ancient workaround of dubious utility clutters the
+	code used by everybody else.
+Who:	Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
+
+---------------------------
+
+What:	CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE, and its ability to call APM BIOS in idle
+When:	2012
+Why:	This optional sub-feature of APM is of dubious reliability,
+	and ancient APM laptops are likely better served by calling HLT.
+	Deleting CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE allows x86 to stop exporting
+	the pm_idle function pointer to modules.
+Who:	Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
+
+----------------------------
+
+What:	x86_32 "no-hlt" cmdline param
+When:	2012
+Why:	remove a branch from idle path, simplify code used by everybody.
+	This option disabled the use of HLT in idle and machine_halt()
+	for hardware that was flakey 15-years ago.  Today we have
+	"idle=poll" that removed HLT from idle, and so if such a machine
+	is still running the upstream kernel, "idle=poll" is likely sufficient.
