Turns out that's not the end of that rabbit (side-)hole yet. :)

amdgpu_device_init initializes adev->gfx.gfx_off_req_count = 1. amdgpu_gfx_off_ctrl is then called with enable=true from amdgpu_device_init → amdgpu_device_ip_late_init → amdgpu_device_set_pg_state. This schedules amdgpu_device_delay_enable_gfx_off, which runs ~100ms later, enables GFXOFF in the HW and sets adev->gfx.gfx_off_state = true.

So it looks fine as is actually, if a bit convoluted. (I wonder if GFXOFF shouldn't rather be enabled synchronously during initialization though)
