+Description:	Reading this file tells if the AMD Platform Management(PMF)
+		Cool n Quiet Framework(CnQF) feature is enabled or not.
+
+		This feature is not enabled by default and gets only turned on
+		if OEM BIOS passes a "flag" to PMF ACPI function (index 11 or 12)
+		or in case the user writes "on".
+
+		To turn off CnQF user can write "off" to the sysfs node.
+		Note: Systems that support auto mode will not have this sysfs file 		   available
