commit cf488dcd0ab7 ("drm/amd: Allow s0ix without BIOS support")
showed
improvements to power consumption over suspend when s0ix wasn't
enabled in
BIOS and the system didn't support S3.

This patch however was misguided because the reason the system didn't
support S3 was because SMT was disabled in OEM BIOS setup.
This prevented the BIOS from allowing S3.

Also allowing GPUs to use the s2idle path actually causes problems if
they're invoked on systems that may not support s2idle in the platform
firmware. `systemd` has a tendency to try to use `s2idle` if `deep` fails
for any reason, which could lead to unexpected flows.

To make this the behavior discoverable and expected, revert commit
cf488dcd0ab7 ("drm/amd: Allow s0ix without BIOS support") and offer
a message if SMT appears to be disabled.

Will this generate a spurious warning on platforms that are natively non-SMT?
Yeah; it could.  I'm not sure how we can reliably detect this.  I thought about looking for
the 'ht' flag, but that probably wouldn't work for this case.

Are there AMD Zen CPUs or APUs that are non-SMT?  Could gate the sched_smt_active()
check to only run when it's an AMD x86 Zen SoC.
Some of the more budget conscient Athlon parts don't have SMT IIRC.

In that case, I think the best solution is to just revert cf488dcd0ab7.
