Yes, you have a point there about injecting idle time to the CPU to cool down 
the GPU. The thing is that modern GPU's (and CPU's) already have thermal 
protection so I don't need intel_powerclamp to protect anything. Now, if I was 
interested in keeping the power usage down then powerclamp would be a good 
thing but when I am plaing a game I couldnt care less.
Perhaps there should be a way to disable powerclamp from userspace in a better 
way than rmmod.
