Hi Andreas,

No, nothing new on this front.  I don't have any of this hardware nor
do I work for Intel, and nothing I see in the code or published spec
would result in hangs.  I don't have more cycles to spend on this
driver.  So I suggest using 'hint.hwpstate_intel.0.disabled="1"' as a
workaround indefinitely.

On a private email with Andrey I discussed making disabled="1" the
default, and allowing users to opt in with disabled="0" (or perhaps
enabled="1", for fewer double negatives).  It's not especially
satisfying, but would prevent this class of unknown issue with
hwpstate_intel(4).

Best,
Conrad
