Dear Debian Xen Team,

after an upgrade from Squeeze to Wheezy I see about ten of these per
second filling my system log (about 8 MB/h):

Nov 23 00:15:37 acromantula kernel: [  462.544193] powernow-k8: fid trans failed, fid 0x2, curr 0x0
Nov 23 00:15:37 acromantula kernel: [  462.546919] powernow-k8: transition frequency failed

This seems to be a known upstream issue, see

It also has been reported against Ubuntu Precise:
