Due to other bugs with the kernel that Ubuntu uses, I switched to the latest mainline kernel available and that resolved the issue for me. At the time, this was 3.16.3-031603.201409171435_amd64 . Ubuntu(14.10) itself is using 3.16.0-28-generic at the moment. For only 16 minutes of uptime, cat /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe_all yields this: 50867044 Which is over 50 million interrupts. To illustrate the rate at which those events are fired, I ran this command: cat /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe_all && sleep 10 && cat /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe_all and the result was: 58397255 58916975 A little over half a million interrupts in 10 seconds. Again - this doesn't happen in the 3.17 kernel. At this point, I'm not sure whether this is a regression or if the fix hasn't gotten to Ubuntu yet.
