[Bug 271938] Excessive heating on Lenovo Thinkpad E450 even with CPU @ 100% idle

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=271938

--- Comment #8 from sozuba <chenpan@protonmail.com> ---
Update: 

I recently went about trying to figure out why i don't face this heating issue
when using linux kernel. The only way i can replicate the heating issue with
~100% idle cpu with linux, is when using linux-libre kernel. When i use the
full linux kernel with all the binary blobs, this doesn't happen. Does this
make any sense, or does it sound illogical?

Maybe i can actually put more efforts to zero-in on the specific binary blob
that helps sort this issue on linux. In tht aspect, i would like to ask, is
there any way i can use that specific binary blob from linux kernel or maybe
all the binary blobs on the linux kernel on/with freebsd kernel and see if this
helps here too?

Note: In case this souds stupid, i appologise, I am neither a programmer nor
much informed on this issue. I have not used freebsd for over a year now due to
pressinng work and inability to use my laptop (my only daily driver/device) as
it  generates so much heat.

Note2: I cannot update this on the forum, as i have lost access to it due to
loosing the app for 2FA and can't seem to find my backup codes. I will update
when i find the backup codes or someone else can update it there, if you can.
Thanks

Any help/suggestion/advise would be appriciated.
