Either the one way:
  1) Documenting powersave_bias and add the stuff there, best with a default
      set so that the stuff gets used
or
  2) Marking powersave_bias deprecated and embed things into ondemand
      directly

should be fine.

As you give this some usefulness now and it's going to get
used (automatically) and the stuff is even documented, I cannot suggest
anything anymore how to integrate that better.
