Thanks for the information.

Looks like the intel_pstate driver doesn't support statistics reporting:
- https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/27/64
- https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/9/561
He also mentions that intel_pstate can be disabled via kernel cmdline,
so that the ACPI driver is used instead.

So it looks like this kind of information will not be available on some
systems. I don't know if there would be something similar available
that munin could use.
