My naive reading is that it's still a DRM property:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/upower/power-profiles-daemon/-/blob/c47fea05d439a69c6a53d4c4e02c56bd8ca51200/src/ppd-action-amdgpu-panel-power.c#L291

As long as p-p-d doesn't mess with it, I guess there's no problem with you
accessing it directly as opposed to letting p-p-d do it.

Yeah, that's worth considering. One hiccup for UX is that p-p-d applies this
option (and others) based on its "power-saver" profile being active, rather
than the AC / Battery / Low Battery / Critical Battery split that we use in
Power Management settings.

On a tangential note, I also noticed that the "trickle_charge" action is
enabled by default and is going to mess with my efforts to get custom charge
thresholds working for Dell laptops
(https://invent.kde.org/plasma/powerdevil/-/merge_requests/510). Also sigh.
