For my post above please note that there is not a regression, as I did
the edit to /etc/init.d/ondemand myself a long time ago, and then forgot
that I had done so.

Since your are changing back from the intel_pstate driver being disabled
by default to enabled by default, this change needs to be included. It
is urgent because it should be included as part of the 14.04.2 release
in less than a week.

Title:
  "powersave" governor should be listed as one possible value for the
  ondemand init.d script

Status in sysvinit package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On my system i have the following CPU:
  Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3427U CPU @ 1.80GHz

  The only possible options for the scaling governors are
  "powersave" and "performance"

  $ cat  /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors 
  performance powersave

  The intention of the /etc/init.d/ondemand script is to select the autoscaling cpu governor
  The powersave is the equivalent of "ondemand" or "interactive".

  
  A patch may be:

  
  $ diff ondemand /etc/init.d/ondemand -u
