kworker thread eating CPU time in 3.3-rc1

[Norbert Preining]

Dear all,

(please cc)

today I switched from 3.2 to 3.3-rc1 and now I have permanently
2 kworker threads each eating up 10-20% CPU time, which seems a bit
exaggerated, comparted to all the rest at below or around 1%.
There is nothing really crazy running, just a gnome3 desktop, firefox,
nothing fancy.

Any idea where this might come from?

Please let me know if you need more information.

Best wishes

Norbert
