Okay, without these both the behavior is better. Fan still does not seem
to get into non running state, which it was able to with earlier kernels
(or userspaces?), but its down to a quiet 1950 rpm with Intel P-State driver
enabled again. CC´d to people from thread "power management regression
in linux 3.10? (related to CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL)" which I think is related.

Powertop values make a lot more sense as well:

If I haven´t stated it. This is on a ThinkPad T520 with dual core
Sandybridge i5-2620M at 2.5 GHz (overclockable to 3.2 GhZ), now with
Kernel 3.10-rc5. I didn´t test this one with the full hz stuff enabled, only
rc2 and rc4.
