Argh, the _PPC function is in a dynamically loaded SSDT which the older
acpidump does not dump. Can you either compile and run the latest acpidump:
ftp://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/utils/pmtools/acpidump
or
copy away and attach the exported tables from here, please:
/sys/firmware/acpi/tables/dynamic/*

Do you use the original power adapter/battery?
There were several reports already where this happens when:
  - some ThinkPads if running on AC with battery unplugged (confirmed by Lenovo
    that this is intended).
  - 60W instead of 90W AC adapter
and similar...

I'll leave for holidays for 3 weeks. You can workaround the issue with:
processor.ignore_ppc=1
boot parameter. If I have some time again, I can have another look why the BIOS
is requesting the limit, ping in 4 weeks or so if things get stuck.
I reduce prio of this. Such _PPC/frequency limit issues mostly boil down to be
a BIOS issue and the kernel typically behaves correctly.
