dmesg

I had a Dell Notebook Inspiron 5548, and since I bought it, I can't run the amd drive property. I upgrade my kernel to 4.9 version, and even I upgrade, the problem still the same.

In attach I send the dmesg, lsci and lshw.

If anyone can help me, I would be very grateful

What exactly is the problem? The only suspicious thing in dmesg is the below, which indicates that the GPU's power management might not be working perfectly:

[   20.346154] cant't get the mac of 5 
[   20.348337] [ powerplay ] VBIOS did not find boot engine clock value 			in dependency table. Using Memory DPM level 0!

hello, there is the same problem in my dell Inspirion 5547. 

my output of `dmesg --levle=err,warn ` like this: 

> [ 5175.824105] amdgpu: [powerplay] VI should always have 2 performance levels
> [ 5181.060603] amdgpu: [powerplay] can't get the mac of 5

and my previous kernel version is 4.10-11-1-ARCH, now, I changed my kernel to 4.11.0-rc8-g5a7ad1146caa. however, the bug isn't solved.

And I also checked the kernel code of drivers/gpu/drm/amd/powerplay/hwmgr/smu7_hwmgr.c, this file's bug has been fixed since the bug#185681.

however, my kernel also has the error of powerplay. so annoying.

can you have any suggestion for me to solve this problem? 

Thanks grateful!
