I want to switch to kpowersave-nohal for R14.0.0.  The biggest problem
with doing so is that I don't know of any way to use udev to set
permissions on the various control files in the /proc filesystem; this
would be needed for a normal user to be able to control CPU frequency
scaling, display brightness, etc.
