Bug#880203: After suspend&resume, cpufreq/scaling_max_freq is ignored



Control: tag -1 moreinfo

If this system has an Intel CPU, I'm afraid this is expected behaviour.
 They no longer allow the OS to set an exact frequency, only a 'P-
state' (performance level).  The Linux cpufreq driver for these
processors (intel_pstate) translates the requested frequency into a P-
state, but the actual frequency is controlled by an embedded controller
that may choose a higher or lower value.

Unless you can show that a different kernel version reproducibly shows
different results, or you're not using an Intel CPU, I don't think
there's anything to be done here.
