/**
* DOC:
* The "Always on" power management policy has the following
* characteristics:
*
* - When KBase indicates that the GPU will be powered up, but we don't yet
* know which Job Chains are to be run:
* All Shader Cores are powered up, regardless of whether or not they will
* be needed later.
*
* - When KBase indicates that a set of Shader Cores are needed to submit the
* currently queued Job Chains:
* All Shader Cores are kept powered, regardless of whether or not they will
* be needed
*
* - When KBase indicates that the GPU need not be powered:
* The Shader Cores are kept powered, regardless of whether or not they will
* be needed. The GPU itself is also kept powered, even though it is not
* needed.
*
* This policy is automatically overridden during system suspend: the desired
* core state is ignored, and the cores are forced off regardless of what the
* policy requests. After resuming from suspend, new changes to the desired
* core state made by the policy are honored.
*
* Note:
*
* - KBase indicates the GPU will be powered up when it has a User Process that
* has just started to submit Job Chains.
*
* - KBase indicates the GPU need not be powered when all the Job Chains from
* User Processes have finished, and it is waiting for a User Process to
* submit some more Job Chains.
