Subject: [PATCH] tools/power turbostat: make the '-n' command line argument work in all cases

In some cases specifying the '-n' command line argument will cause
turbostat to fail. For instance 'turbostat -n 1' works fine; however,
'turbostat -n 1 -d' will fail. This is the result of the first call
to getopt_long_only() where "MP" is specified as the optstring. This can
be easily fixed by changing the optstring from "MP" to "MPn:" to remove
ambiguity between the arguments.

Is there a problem with this commit? I don't believe it has been merged
or otherwise replied to.

Thanks,
