We want programs besides the compositor to be able to enable or disable
panel power saving features. However, since they are currently only
configurable through DRM properties, that isn't possible. So, to remedy
that issue introduce a new "panel_power_savings" sysfs attribute.

When the system is first booted up with nothing on the kernel command line, this emits the value for ABM_LEVEL_IMMEDIATE_DISABLE, which isn't something we normally should be showing to people.

I think you should be special casing it similar to how the store special case works.

It appears that the ABM doesn't actually take effect by writing this value until the next modeset. This is also reported by Dominik Förderer. I suggested he try to change resolutions in his DE and that activated ABM.

So I think it's missing another call to flush out to the hardware.

To make this more discoverable I think you want some kerneldoc.

I think there should be some matching code sysfs_remove_group(), maybe in early_unregister() callback.
