It wasn't enabled in any of the kernels i ran:

# grep X86_ACPI ../configs/config*
../configs/config-2.6.22-git14-c3-via5000-firewall:# CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ is 
not set

_none_ of these options will work. The machine locks up solid.
And that's what i'm the most surprised about. The last time i withnessed
a solid kernel lockup without any panic/notification is _years_ ago.

I also tried a kernel without "CPU Frequency scaling", so it is not the
scaling up/down in Mhz of the cpu.
I've even just compiled/run a kernel with libata and even that one still 
locks up.

New round of git bisects i guess (this time powercycle instead of reboot
and wait few hours before ginving it "bisect good" )

Will report back.
