I have been having a question here long time.
Maximum Time Window (bits 53:48) in MSR_PKG_POWER_INFO is only
6-bit length even though Time Window for Power Limit #1 (bits 23:17)
and Time Window for Power Limit #2 (bits 55:49) in MSR_PKG_POWER_LIMIT 
are both 7-bit length, not 6.

Do Intel guys have an answer for it?


The patch itself looks good to me.
Just minor comments below:

The 2nd arg "id" is not necessary.

rapl_read_data_raw() can return -EINVAL and -ENODEV other than -EIO.

Is it OK to limit ret to -EIO here?

An opposite question to above.
Is it OK not to limit the return value to -EINVAL here?
Do you want this function to return -EIO or something?
