No news on the schedule, but with 9.1 Beta, the code has finally been
fixed to deal with several issues and the correct answer is:
performance_cx_lowest="Cmax"
economy_cx_lowest="Cmax"
And, no, I don't recall where it is documented, only that I could not
find it and the Andriy, the developer, told me in response to my query
on acpi@. I can tell you that it works correctly on my ThinkPad T520.
