This seems somewhat related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thermald/+bug/1543046
For some reason thermald is writing the message "sysfs write failed constraint_0_power_limit_uw" to the syslog every few seconds. However, there's nothing in the kernel log.

[SRU REQUEST, Xenial, Yakkety]
Thermald is spamming the log with error messages on sysfs write failure messages. Demote these to debug level errors so that they aren't logged unless running in debug mode.
[FIX]
See comment #24, with the fix the messages are not logged when in normal non-debug running mode.
[REGRESSION POTENIAL]
Minimal, this just reduces the logging spam by turning messages into debug only for when running in debug mode.
