Now that Christian fixed the performance problems with
the feedback buffer in mesa, we can enable variable UVD
clocks.  There are multiple UVD power states associated
with different types and numbers of streams.  This uses
the appropriate state based on that information rather
than always using the fastest UVD clocks which saves some
power.  One possible downside is that this may adversely
affect decode benchmarks since these power states target
specific playback requirements rather than maximum
performance.  If that becomes an issue, we can add a
sysfs attribute to force the max UVD state.

Additional to that we should also count the number of frames per second 
submitted to choose a power state, but that's not so urgent right now.

Do you want to pull that in through drm-fixes or should I apply it to 
the drm-next-3.15 tree? For me it sounds more like drm-next.

Christian.

Yes, this is drm-next material.  thanks!
