OK, so for a more scientific test. I used sysbench to test CPU
performance. I tested with the stock 3.11.0-15-generic kernel and the
test 3.13.0-031300rc3-generic kernel, both before and resume a
suspend/resume cycle.

The command i used to perform the tests: 
sysbench --num-threads=8 --test=cpu --cpu-max-prime=50000 run

The results:

3.11.0-15-generic: 12.4127s
3.11.0-15-generic (after suspend): 78.8023s

3.13.0-031300rc3-generic: 12.2202s
3.13.0-031300rc3-generic (after suspend): 35.0208s

We can very similar performance before suspend and degradation after
resume. A huge degradation with 3.11 (about 6.5x slower) and a smaller
one (about 3x slower) with 3.13.

Hope these help.

Title:
  CPU stuck on minimum frequency after resume from suspend and unplugged

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This happens on a Dell Latitude E6540 (4th gen core i7 CPU).

  Steps to reproduce:

  1) normally boot the computer and make sure  everything works as expected (i use the ondemand governor)
  2) suspend
  3) make the computer is unplugged and resume

  Expected behavior: cpu should work normally
  Actual behavior: cpu always stays at minimum frequency (in my case 800 MHz)

  If i resume from suspend while plugged to the AC charger, everything works as expected.
