Seems to work for me at least:

  > cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_driver
  amd-pstate
And, it has a tremendous effect on battery life and the fan speed on the G3. Maybe it doesn't work with previous models?

As the parent said, apparently AMD recommended not to enable it for that generation [1]. That's the price to pay for having a first gen I suppose...
