+/**
+ * RC6 is a special power stage which allows the GPU to enter an very
+ * low-voltage mode when idle, using down to 0V while at this stage. This
+ * stage is entered automatically when the GPU is idle when RC6 support is
+ * enabled, and as soon as new workload arises GPU wakes up automatically as well.
+ *
+ * There are different RC6 modes available in Intel GPU, which differentiate
+ * among each other with the latency required to enter and leave RC6 and
+ * voltage consumed by the GPU in different states.
+ *
+ * The combination of the following flags define which states GPU is allowed
+ * to enter, while RC6 is the normal RC6 state, RC6p is the deep RC6, and
+ * RC6pp is deepest RC6. Their support by hardware varies according to the
+ * GPU, BIOS, chipset and platform. RC6 is usually the safest one and the one
+ * which brings the most power savings; deeper states save more power, but
+ * require higher latency to switch to and wake up.
