You can't disable it at all; it is the kernel.


‘It’ refers to this specific functionality.

If you recompile the XNU kernel you could disable the part that ‘reserves’ the CPU to cool the system. I am not sure whether is is still possible to replace the kernel, but IIRC some Hackintosh people replace it by custom builds (assuming that Apple released the relevant version already).

Of course you probably do not want to do that, this is done for a reason.
