As far as I can see, the kernel I'm using has that commit.

  $ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/bios_limit
  2101000

which is the highest clock speed. This is from cold on battery power. If I plug
then unplug(1), or press some "Magic Power" button(2), this drops to 1200000.
Would this indicate that the BIOS isn't setting things up right under these
conditions? Odd because I'm sure it worked some time in the past... (Maybe I
was mistaken?)

Footnotes

1. Events associated with plugging in:

  ac_adapter ACPI0003:00 00000080 00000001
  battery PNP0C0A:00 00000080 00000001
  battery PNP0C0A:00 00000081 00000001
  processor LNXCPU:00 00000080 00000000
  processor LNXCPU:00 00000081 00000000
  processor LNXCPU:00 00000081 00000000
  processor LNXCPU:01 00000080 00000000
  processor LNXCPU:01 00000081 00000000
  processor LNXCPU:01 00000081 00000000
   pnp0c14:00 000000d0 00000000

and unplugging:

  ac_adapter ACPI0003:00 00000080 00000000
  battery PNP0C0A:00 00000080 00000001
  battery PNP0C0A:00 00000081 00000001
  processor LNXCPU:00 00000080 00000003
  processor LNXCPU:00 00000081 00000000
  processor LNXCPU:00 00000081 00000000
  processor LNXCPU:01 00000080 00000003
  processor LNXCPU:01 00000081 00000000
  processor LNXCPU:01 00000081 00000000
   pnp0c14:00 000000d0 00000000

2. Activating this produces events

  processor LNXCPU:00 00000080 00000003
  processor LNXCPU:00 00000081 00000000
  processor LNXCPU:01 00000080 00000003
  processor LNXCPU:01 00000081 00000000
   pnp0c14:00 000000d0 00000000

and when deactivated,

  processor LNXCPU:00 00000080 00000000
  processor LNXCPU:00 00000081 00000000
  processor LNXCPU:01 00000080 00000000
  processor LNXCPU:01 00000081 00000000
   pnp0c14:00 000000d0 00000000


Will see if there's a more recent BIOS for this notebook, but I've found
nothing so far.
