3.5.7.29 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Josh Boyer <jwboyer at redhat.com>
commit f447ef4a56dee4b68a91460bcdfe06b5011085f2 upstream.
If a user calls 'cpupower set --perf-bias 15', the process will end with
a SIGSEGV in libc because cpupower-set passes a NULL optarg to the atoi
call. This is because the getopt_long structure currently has all of
the options as having an optional_argument when they really have a
required argument. We change the structure to use required_argument to
match the short options and it resolves the issue.
This fixes https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1000439
