I confirm the problem on Impish (21.10), and didn't have it on 21.04. While I have indeed Turbo Boost turned off, it shouldn't behave like that for two reasons :

- The message is false, there is no temperature problem.
- On CPUs with hardware-driven P-states (HWP) on, the performance mode of the control panel sets the Energy Performance Preference (EPP) of the CPU to high performance. While maybe not very useful, it's still possible technically to have Turbo Boost off and EPP set to high performance, and I don't see why it shouldn't be possible through Gnome.

I suspect Gnome checks the "no turbo" flag as a thermal trip indicator, which it is not.
