Most of the rc6-related hangs and major issues were addressed for the past
months.
Let's re-enable it by default to provide a more wider testing, and catch
the remaining problems.
According to tests, enablement of rc6 results in up to +50% improvements
in power usage and battery life, so it certainly would be a nice feature
to have enabled by default.
Also, most of the rc6-related issues seem to came from GMAR, so we only
enable it as long as GMAR is disabled.
