 ==================================
 The amd-pstate driver supports dynamically selecting the energy performance

-Whether this behavior is enabled by default depends on the kernel command line option

-When set to enabled, the driver will select a different energy performance

-also register with the platform profile handler to receive notifications of

-When set to disabled, the driver will not change the energy performance profile
