Subject: [PATCH] drm/amdgpu/vcn: drop gfxoff control for VCN2+

Drop disabling of gfxoff during VCN use.  This allows gfxoff to kick in and 
potentially save power if the user is not using gfx for color space conversion 
or scaling.

VCN1.0 had a bug which prevented it from working properly with gfxoff, so we 
disabled it while using VCN.  That said, most apps today use gfx for scaling 
and color space conversion rather than overlay planes so it was generally in 
use anyway. This was fixed on VCN2+, but since we mostly use gfx for color 
space conversion and scaling and rapidly powering up/down gfx can negate the 
advantages of gfxoff, we left gfxoff disabled. As more applications use overlay 
planes for color space conversion and scaling, this starts to be a win, so go 
ahead and leave gfxoff enabled.
