Also affected me after upgrading from 18.04 to 18.10.

The real pain point is that it locks my CPU frequency at 800MHz, and
doesn't 'unlock' it even after removing the intel_powerclamp module.

Title:
  kidle_inject constantly running

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in thermald package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Computer boots up fine, but as soon as any process causes a single
  spike in CPU, `kidle_inject` starts and it just won't stop.

  Even after 1 hour of idling, with low temperatures, no fan, it’s still
  making this computer unresponsive.

  I disabled `kidle_inject` process by creating a file `/etc/modprobe.d
  /blacklist-power.conf` with the following content:

  ```
  blacklist intel_powerclamp
  blacklist intel_rapl
  ``` 

  Then I restarted computer. Since then, my computer is not unresponsive
  anymore, and I use it to work all the time.
