[v1] Add extreme platform profile

[PATCH 1/3] acpi: platform_profile - Add Extreme profile option

Posted by Derek J. Clark 3 months, 2 weeks ago

Some devices, namely Lenovo Legion devices, have an "extreme" mode where
power draw is at the maximum limit of the cooling hardware. Add a new
"extreme" platform profile to properly reflect this operating mode.

This is fine with me from the ACPI angle, so
