There is another issue:

/etc/init.d/ondemand tries to set the governor to ondemand
unconditionally, even on intel systems with p-state.

Systems with the p-state frequency scaling do not have an ondemand
governor at all. This means that the /etc/init.d/ondemand falls back to
the powersave governor, hindering performance.

Alltogether, the /etc/init.d/ondemand looks hackish.  Its operation
relies on assumptions on the system setup that are just plain wrong:

1) That one does not install the cpufreq utils
since, as mentioned in the original bug report, it destroys the work of 
/etc/init.d/cpufrequtils

2) That one is on the acpi cpu frequency driver
since it is hardwired with the governors provided by such driver.

I strongly recommend getting rid of /etc/init.d/ondemand
