Rafael J. Wysocki 61ebd2fe6f drm: amd: amdgpu: ACPI: Add comment about ACPI_FADT_LOW_POWER_S0
According to the ACPI specification [1], the ACPI_FADT_LOW_POWER_S0
flag merely means that it is better to use low-power S0 idle on the
given platform than S3 (provided that the latter is supported) and it
doesn't preclude using either of them (which of them will be used
depends on the choices made by user space).

However, on some systems that flag is used to indicate whether or not
to enable special firmware mechanics allowing the system to save more
energy when suspended to idle.  If that flag is unset, doing so is
generally risky.

Accordingly, add a comment to explain the ACPI_FADT_LOW_POWER_S0 check
in amdgpu_acpi_is_s0ix_active(), the purpose of which is otherwise
somewhat unclear.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
