Updating to the new kernel seems a bit sketchy.  People should probably
at least use the PPA given by Ramoonus in the comments, so as to allow
security updates to be picked up by APT — assuming that updated kernel
images are indeed posted to the PPA.

Based on the lxml thread posted in comment #21, and based on the fact
that my machine is running cool, it looks like this is just noise that
can safely be muted until the kernel patch is deployed in the mainline
ubuntu release.  I've done this by adding a syslog filter:

    $ cat /etc/rsyslog/10-mcp-power.conf
    :msg,contains,"intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: MCP power or thermal limit exceeded" 
~

I'm not sure if the the `...1f:6` will always be the same or not.
