/**
* DOC: power_dpm_force_performance_level
*
* The amdgpu driver provides a sysfs API for adjusting certain power
* related parameters. The file power_dpm_force_performance_level is
* used for this. It accepts the following arguments:
* - auto
* - low
* - high
* - manual
* - GPU fan
* - profile_standard
* - profile_min_sclk
* - profile_min_mclk
* - profile_peak
*
* auto
*
* When auto is selected, the driver will attempt to dynamically select
* the optimal power profile for current conditions in the driver.
*
* low
*
* When low is selected, the clocks are forced to the lowest power state.
*
* high
*
* When high is selected, the clocks are forced to the highest power state.
*
* manual
*
* When manual is selected, the user can manually adjust which power states
* are enabled for each clock domain via the sysfs pp_dpm_mclk, pp_dpm_sclk,
* and pp_dpm_pcie files and adjust the power state transition heuristics
* via the pp_power_profile_mode sysfs file.
*
* profile_standard
* profile_min_sclk
* profile_min_mclk
* profile_peak
*
* When the profiling modes are selected, clock and power gating are
* disabled and the clocks are set for different profiling cases. This
* mode is recommended for profiling specific work loads where you do
* not want clock or power gating for clock fluctuation to interfere
* with your results. profile_standard sets the clocks to a fixed clock
* level which varies from asic to asic. profile_min_sclk forces the sclk
* to the lowest level. profile_min_mclk forces the mclk to the lowest level.
* profile_peak sets all clocks (mclk, sclk, pcie) to the highest levels.
