Public bug reported:

When viewing videos sometimes the kernel thread
kworker/u32:2+events_unbound starts to consume 100% CPU while the screen
response (including mouse) drops to less than 1 image per second. I
managed to crash the kernel and capture the core image of that crash
while the kernel was in this state (see debugging the kernel crashes)
but I am not sure what to do next to investigate this problem. I think
it should be possible to interrogate that dump somehow to see what
exactly was the kernel thread doing but I don't know how.
