+/**
+ * DOC: Panel Self Refresh (PSR/SRD)
+ *
+ * Since 4th Generation Intel® Core™ processors with Intel® HD Graphics
+ * (Haswell) Display controller supports Panel Self-Refresh on display panels
+ * witch have a remote frame buffer (RFB) implemented according to PSR spec in
+ * eDP1.3. PSR feature allows the display to go to lower standby states when
+ * system is idle but display is on as it eliminates diplay refresh request
+ * to DDR memory completely as long as the frame buffer for that display is
+ * unchanged.
+ *
+ * Panel Self Refresh must be supported by both Hardware (source) and
+ * Panel (sink).
+ *
+ * The PSR feature enables system-level power savings when the displayed image
+ * remains static for multiple display frames. The Sink device stores a static
+ * image locally in the RFB within the Sink device, and displays this image
+ * from the RFB, while the eDP Main-Link can be turned OFF.
