I am not sure if it is a good idea to allow platform_profile_cycle() to cycle into this
new max-power profile. The system could encounter a brownout if it is currently operating
on battery power when selecting max-power.

Maybe we should prevent platform_profile_cylce() from selecting max-power?

Other than that:
