Another date point is that set ACPI_CPPC_CPUFREQ_FIE=n fixed the issue that any CPU could run below the lowest freq.

schedutil:
# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/*/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq | sort | uniq -c
80 1000000
78 1400000
1 2010000
1 2800000

userspace:
# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/*/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq | sort | uniq -c
158 1000000
2 2000000
