radeon: dpm - 3.11-rc1 positive report

[Eldad Zack]

Hi Alex,

I just tested the new 3.11-rc1 and was very happy to find out that it 
reduces the idle temperature of my system by about 12 degrees (C).

Thank you very much for this!

Cheers,
Eldad

P.S. Just for reference, lspci output + dmesg below.
