+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.
