[PATCH 1/7] drm/amdgpu/powerplay: pp module only enable smu when dpm disabled.

[Zhu, Rex]

Hi Gražvydas,

Only in case dpm was disabled, we didn't initialize hwmgr and hwmgr->hwmgr_func.
In this case, we just use smu to load firmware. All the power feature will be disabled.
And the sysfs and debugfs files will not be initialized.


Best Regards
Rex

Is that really the right thing to do? With it functions like
pp_dpm_get_fan_speed_percent() pp_dpm_read_sensor() will succeed but not set the values and callers will use uninitialized data (leak kernel stack contents, so it can be considered a security issue even).
