Closing this as that's a kernel thing, and it was reverted anyway as
pointed out.

Title:
  lscpu shows incorrect instantaneous CPU MHz value

Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 17.10:

  lscpu has the following fields of interest to this report:

  Model name:          Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2700K CPU @ 3.50GHz

  CPU MHz:             3499.996
  CPU max MHz:         5900.0000
  CPU min MHz:         1600.0000

  The CPU MHz field is incorrect:  At idle it never shows down-step, and
  at full load, it never shows the CPU's boost frequency (which should
  be up to about 4.6GHz on my system).

  This was working correctly under Ubuntu 17.04, showing the full range
  between 1600 and 4600.  But with Ubuntu 17.10 it remains constantly at
  the CPU's design spec of 3499.996.
