I did not keep the turbostat output, however it is easy enough to
re-do the tests. I'll send you the stuff off-list, and copy
Srinivas.

By the way, there is an anomaly in my 2 hour idle data (v7), where
CPU 7 should have had sample passes through the intel_pstate driver.
It did not, rather hitting the 4 second time limit instead.
10 occurrences in 7200 seconds. I sent you an off-list html format
e-mail with more details. There may be other anomalies I didn't
find yet.
