`auto-cpufreq` is constantly using the `userspace` governor, and not setting epp or epb. Is this normal? I am just curious. `auto-cpufreq --stats` also shows less stuff than before and seems.. frozen, like its not doing anything.

Research direction
Start with the `auto-cpufreq --stats` entry point and the reported `userspace` governor, `acpi-cpufreq`, EPP/EPB fields, and Linux kernel details. No source file or test is named, so first locate the code producing stats and governor selection, then compare behavior on this system. Done means the behavior is explained as expected or a reproducible, scoped bug is identified.
