Moreover, as you can see, the original alt mode commit had more subtle
changes than catches the eye, it caused regressions, and I feel pretty
strongly about getting back to the drawing board and starting over with
a clean slate than trying to tweak it when we are quite frankly way
overdue with the revert. If after that you think the drrs/downclock
selection needs tweaking, let's do that.
