Public bug reported:

On a bit higher load and especially if Laptop is charging, very often
Kernel does an emergency thermal shutdown.

thermal thermal_zone3: critical temperature reached (80 C), shutting
down

It says 80 C, but sensors command shows that temperatures hovering close
to 100C before the shutdown happens.

dmesg is often also full of these (for each core):
mce: CPU2: Core temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events 
= 246766)

When I boot to Windows, it seems that CPU is throttled more aggressively
on load and thermal shutdown doesn't happen with a similar load, but CPU
frequencies drop to 1600 range, while in Ubuntu they are 2800 range.

I would rather have more throttling that computer shutting down randomly
without the ability to save work.

Is there a workaround?
