>From my understanding, I can see that thermald is detecting the passive
trip point temperature being reached at 75 degrees C and then it
attempts to move to cpufreq index position 3; so it seems to be trying
to do some passive CPU frequency switching.

Sensor hwmon :temp 76000 
update_set_point 76000,0,98000
pref 0 type 1 temp 76000 trip 99000 
Passive Trip point applicable 
Trip point applicable <  0:99000 
cdev size for this trippoint 2
cdev at index 0:Processor
Need to switch to next cdev 
cdev at index 3:cpufreq
Need to switch to next cdev 
pref 0 type 2 temp 76000 trip 95000 
Passive Trip point applicable 
Trip point applicable <  1:95000 
cdev size for this trippoint 2
cdev at index 0:Processor
Need to switch to next cdev 
cdev at index 3:cpufreq
Need to switch to next cdev 

What is really interesting is that your firmware is configured to do
passive (e.g. non-fan) cooling strategies at 75 degrees C.  In the
earlier analysis we saw that even at 20% CPU load your machine is close
to this temperature.   So, we can conclude that slightly busy CPU
already into the thermal danger zone and informing the OS to start
attempting passive cooling strategies.

Key facts we can draw from this:

At 20% utilization your machine is already moving into the zone where
the designers of the machine believe that fan control is not sufficient
and hence is triggering passive cooling strategies.

That really tells me that your machine is having some cooling issues
between the CPU and the fan.  This implies that one should check that
there is sufficient thermal paste between the CPU and the heat pipe.
