I always let it boot with the default gov (performance), then
use cpufreq-set to change it.

acpi_pm+performance behaves like tsc+performance, which works

When switching from tsc+performance to (tsc+)ondemand, acpi_pm gets
used because of the unstable tsc (of course, since we changed
frequency and the cpu does NOT have constant_tsc), so it's
becoming acpi_pm+ondemand naturally.

Switching from acpi_pm+performance to acpi_pm+ondemand also
locks up after a few minutes.
