the -5 kernel is set to performance, ie what you set for overclock in config.txt applies
-6 kernel is set for build now, ondemand is default govenor, so when idle it uses hardware 700Mhz clock, when thrashed goes to config.txt setting, unless temp rises and it cuts back . At least this is what I made of it all. Not pleased I wasn't forwarned and this was coming. Only had to change config from performance to ondemand though
Alex (asb) made
https://github.com/asb/raspi-config but it has these depends
whiptail, parted, lua5.1, triggerhappy
So if someone wants to package whiptail, triggerhappy, and raspi-config
Or manually, you put one of these in /boot/config.txt
None
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'arm_freq=700
core_freq=250
sdram_freq=400
over_voltage=0')

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'arm_freq=950

Can't test until kernel -6 built, but
cat sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
should say ondemand
Can't say I need raspi-config myself
Install cpufrequtils and then cpufreq-info should be interesting
Edit: (if you can't wait)
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '[root@alarmpi ~]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
performance
[root@alarmpi ~]# echo "ondemand" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
[root@alarmpi ~]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
ondemand')
