This has nothing to do with the radeon driver.  All the DPI handling is done by
the xserver.  The driver merely passes along the physical size info from the
monitor's EDID if it's available.  The xserver handles the DisplaySize option
and the actual DPI setup.  It could also be an issue with your desktop
environment as many of them assume 96 DPI regardless of what the physical size
of your desktop is.
