Do you know what the sampling period is on vega?  We should try and be consistent.  How about making this selectable via hwmon:

power[1-*]_average_interval     Power use averaging interval.  A poll
                                notification is sent to this file if the
                                hardware changes the averaging interval.
                                Unit: milliseconds
                                RW

power[1-*]_average_interval_max Maximum power use averaging interval
                                Unit: milliseconds
                                RO

power[1-*]_average_interval_min Minimum power use averaging interval
                                Unit: milliseconds
                                RO


Then the user can select the interval they want.

Power value is wrong reported by customer. It is a regression by

    for power readings.

The theoretical sampling period is from 50ms to 4sec, original 2sec
is long but correct, and 20ms is too short. change it to more
reasonable 200ms.
