Public bug reported:

Powertop reports knotify4 generating many interrupts:

  18.4% ( 92.2)          knotify4 : schedule_timeout (process_timeout)

after attaching to the process with strace one can see:

stat("/home/mag/.kde4/share/config/kwin.notifyrc", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, 
st_size=439, ...}) = 0
lseek(24, 439, SEEK_SET)                = 439
stat("/home/mag/.kde4/share/config/kwin.notifyrc", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, 
st_size=439, ...}) = 0
lseek(24, 439, SEEK_SET)                = 439
stat("/home/mag/.kde4/share/config/kwin.notifyrc", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, 
st_size=439, ...}) = 0
close(24)                               = 0

on every mouse move,every click etc

This is unnecessary utilizing battery on laptop systems
