Just pitching in that that patch (while adding the follow block to it) solves a
similar problem for the Asus F3Jv laptop:

        {
         .callback = asus_get_performance_status,
         .ident = "Asus F3JV",
         .matches = {
                DMI_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_VENDOR, "ASUSTeK Computer Inc."),
                DMI_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_NAME, "F3JV"),
                },
        },

The background for the F3Jv is that in version 201 (and potentially 202, I
never managed to get that) of it's BIOS, there were just duplicate P-states (as
with the original bug), so the "same function but more clean" patch worked -
however, starting with either version 202 or 203, that was no longer the
problem - until finding this patch, I've been unable to work around it.

You're a lifesaver, Zhang - unfortunately, I have some programs which I need
Windows for, and Windows Vista is only supported with BIOS 203+. Having to
re-flash my BIOS every time I wanted to switch OS was meaning I was spending
more and more time away from Linux.
