        <pre>Using the following kernel options:

BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.9.0-rc7+

amdgpu.exp_hw_support=1 rd.driver.blacklist=radeon [video=eDP-1:d
video=VGA-1:e] resume=/dev/sda7 intel_iommu=igfx_off

the driver will not turn on RC6 GFX power saving state(s).

I've attached kernel dmesg with driver debug output.


Tests done:

1) Run w/o any video= options, same result
2) Disable Intel AMT completely, same result
3) Force RC6, does not enable in driver.

Kernel: Dec 1st build, Linux 4.9-rc7 + drm-next-4.10-wip merged in for AMDGPU
(hybrid graphics use).

Powertop / turbostat -d show no GFX stats reported.</pre>
