radeon_pm_info is not the real hardware state, but rather the state the kernel
driver thinks the hardware is in.

So it's actually not very useful to an end user, except if you want to debug
the different states the kernel driver can be into (UVD/performance/battery
etc...)

I agree that we need a proper sysfs interface to make certain PM functions and
informations available to userspace, but it's definitely not what's inside
radeon_pm_info.
