I'd prefer to keep the requirement to select manual mode to be able to
manually mess with the clock levels.  This also makes simplifies the
profile interface by only allowing you to change the profile if you
select manual mode first.  That way we don't have to add an AUTO
profile to the profile selection to let the driver pick the profile.
that can happen automatically if the user sets the force_performance
level to auto.
