> Subject: [PATCH] drm/amd/pm: Enable gfx DCS feature
> 
> Background:
> Gfx Duty Cycle Scaling(DCS) is applied on the small power limit skus.
> When the current/power/temperature exceeds the limit with the heavy
> workload, the gfx core can be shut off and powered on back and forth.
> The ON time and OFF time is determined by the firmware according to the
> accumulated power credits.
> This feature is different from gfxoff.Gfxoff is applied in the idle case and DCS is
> applied in the case with heavey workload.There are two types of DCS:
> Async DCS and Frame-aligned DCS.Frame-aligned DCS is applied on 3D fullscreen
> and VR workload.
> Since we only supports Async DCS now,disalbe DCS when the 3D fullscreen or
> the VR workload type is chosen.
> 
> Verification:
> The power is lowerer or the perf/watt is increased in the throttling case.
> To be simplified, the entry/exit counter can be observed from the firmware.

[Tao]: So DCS is unsupported on SIENNA_CICHLID currently?

[Tao]: Tab should be replaced with space here.
