Hmm ... interesting.  I do not get any such problems.  I have set up 
/sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_method to 'profile' and power_profile to 
'auto' as shown above and the fan behaviour is comparable to MSWindows.  Are 
you sure you did not try 'low' instead of 'auto'?

Perhaps leaving power_profile at default and using 'dynpm' at power_method may 
work better?  Have a look here:
