Public bug reported:

I noticed my 19.10 laptop was stuttering - YouTube videos freezing. Did
further investigations and the entire desktop freezes, not just the
video rendering.

Some investigation led me to
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109051 and
https://askubuntu.com/questions/803640/system-freezes-completely-with-
intel-bay-trail

I set intel_idle.max_cstate=2 in my grub config and now the issue never
happens, but I have (anecdotally) seen worse battery life as a result.

Can this be fixed in such a way that I don't have to suffer poor battery
performance.
