I take it that shouldn't be necessary with the new reproducer? But a debug log
from the offline/online cycle would be useful?

You meant dmesg, correct? I take it the originally attached dmesg didn't have
the kernel config debug options enabled that you need? Which specific options
enabled, anything I need to echo into an appropriate sysfs file, etc? There's
a LOT of kernel debug options to choose from but I guess most of them wouldn't
be particularly helpful here, so I think you didn't really mean *ALL* of them.

> I believe you are using acpi-cpufreq driver, right?

Yes, the acpi p-states driver, X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ. AFAIK it was previously the
k8 powernow driver, X86_POWERNOW_K8, but a kernel or two ago I noticed
complaints in the kernel log saying to switch to the acpi driver, so I disabled
the powernow driver (acpi p-states was already enabled, monolithic kernel as I
mentioned above) and rebooted, and cpufreq continued to work, so I stayed with
the acpi driver.
