Hello, It has been a while that I noticed that kworker/0:1 eats a lot of CPU on my computer, about ~80%.
I never found the real problem, but googling the solution was to disable some GPE interrupt, in my case it is /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe13. This is a dirty solution, actually, it hides the problem I think. I have no idea what is the real problem and I would like to understand what is. I'm using kernel 4.9.0-2 now, but it was present on older versions too. I'm running OpenSuse on a Samsung laptop (Intel i5 3rd gen). If someone could point me in the right direction I'll be happy to share more info. Regards, Alexandre Vicenzi
