There are two turbostat output files, In both I see we are requesting
max (0x1700) in performance mode. This CPU is Sandybridge, so no config
TDP here, the other problem system reported is Haswell
.

I am not sure whether Sedat is saying that he has the same issue as
Jorg. I think Sedat will see the same turbostat output if he ran 4.5.

Sedat, 
Please confirm whether you see difference between 4.5 and 4.6-rc1.

Thanks,
Srinivas
