| and performance |

| device. Writing this file with one of the strings from |
| platform_profile_choices changes the profile to the new value. |

| This file can be monitored for changes by polling for POLLPRI, |
| POLLPRI will be signalled on any changes, independent of those |
| changes coming from a userspace write; or coming from another |
| source such as e.g. a hotkey triggered profile change handled |
| either directly by the embedded-controller or fully handled |
| inside the kernel. |
