When a PSE controller appears to be able to support mixed budget strategy and
could switch between them it will be better to have it set at the PSE power
domain level. As the budget is per PSE power domain, its strategy should also
be per PSE power domain.
For now, it is simply not configurable and can't be mixed. It is hard-coded by
the PSE driver.
