I get:

Most likely the bug has been restricted for internal development

Is this what the bug described above is? In any case, please remove the
private bugzilla link and describe the bug in text here.
Also, from reading the other thread about the v4 patch, it sounds like
intel_pstate can't handle the clock modulation properly, according to
what Doug says.
So let's have this aspect sorted out properly first please before adding
yet another ugly BIOS workaround.
Btw, why can't that BIOS be fixed instead?
