Currently, besides there is no explicit message, that DPM is disabled.
The user would need to know, that the missing success line indicates
that.
[drm] amdgpu: dpm initialized
So, add an explicit message, and make it log level warning, as
disabling
dpm is not the default, and device performance will most likely suffer.

I'm not very keen about this. When an user specifies that DPM
shouldn't be used the driver doesn't need to inform the user about
this once more.
In other words shooting in your own foot is supposed to hurt.
Maybe. The other point of view is, how does having the clarity in the
logs hurt?
Well, you are spamming the logs with a warning about an intentional
behavior.
For example, if the user added the parameter intentionally, maybe they
made a typo, and it’s actually not applied. Or there is a bug in the
parameter handling. Having explicit log messages is good in my opinion.
Secondly, the parameter could have been left there unintentionally.
Having the message in the logs, makes the user aware of tha.
And exactly for this reason the kernel command line is printed as the
second line of the logs.
Duplicating this in each driver is not only overkill, but also very
error prone.
Sorry, but this is absolutely don't think that this is a good idea.
Regards,
Christian.
Kind regards,
Paul
