With RAPL MSR/MMIO Interface, each RAPL domain has one Power Limit register. Each Power Limit register has one lock bit which tells the OS if the power limit register can be used or not. Depending on the number of power limits supported by the power limit register, the lock bit may apply to one or more power limits. With RAPL TPMI Interface, each RAPL domain has multiple Power Limits, and each Power Limit has its own register, with a lock bit. To handle this, introduce support for lock bit per Power Limit. For existing RAPL MSR/MMIO Interfaces, the lock bit in the Power Limit register applies to all the Power Limits controlled by this register. Remove the per domain DOMAIN_STATE_BIOS_LOCKED flag at the same time because it can be replaced by the per Power Limit lock. No functional change intended.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
