This is a bug in xenpm when 'smt' is off, as discussed in here:
https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/4456

Still need help with turbo boost. In vm, frequency shown in 'powertop' does 
indicate turbo boost's presence, but I highly doubt its reliability since the 
number never goes under max base frequency, and doesn't correspond to real cpu 
usage.

Actually it has 4 cores and 8 threads. In xenpm's output, there're 2 lines 
saying '[CPUx] failed to get cpufreq parameter', 'x' being 1 and 3.

The most promising result is given by xenpm, however only info of 2 cores out 
of 4 are listed.

I think xenpm is supposed to work the best. Qubes disables SMT for 
security, so if you only have 2 real cores that's all you'll see.
