Looks like some not needed debug code slipped in.
Also this code:
tmp = sysfs_get_idlestate_name(cpu, idlestates - 1);
performs a strdup and the mem was not freed again.
-> delete it.

The number of idle states was wrong.
The POLL idle state (on X86) was missed out:
Number of idle states: 4
Available idle states: C1-NHM C3-NHM C6-NHM
While the POLL is not a real idle state, its
statistics should still be shown. It's now also
explained in a detailed manpage.
This should fix a bug of missing the first idle
state on other archs.

Instead of printing something non-formatted to stdout, call
man(1) to show the man page for the proper subcommand.

CPU power consumption vs performance tuning is no longer
limited to CPU frequency switching anymore: deep sleep states,
traditional dynamic frequency scaling and hidden turbo/boost
frequencies are tied close together and depend on each other.
The first two exist on different architectures like PPC, Itanium and
ARM, the latter (so far) only on X86. On X86 the APU (CPU+GPU) will
only run most efficiently if CPU and GPU has proper power management
in place.
Users and Developers want to have *one* tool to get an overview what
their system supports and to monitor and debug CPU power management
in detail. The tool should compile and work on as many architectures
as possible.
Once this tool stabilizes a bit, it is intended to replace the
Intel-specific tools in tools/power/x86
