The Energy Model supports power values either in Watts or in some abstract scale. When the 2nd option is in use, the thermal governor IPA should not be allowed to operate, since the relation between cooling devices is not properly defined. Thus, it might be possible that big GPU has lower power values in abstract scale than a Little CPU. To mitigate a misbehaviour of the thermal control algorithm, simply not register a cooling device capable of working with IPA.
