            Bug ID: 209617
           Summary: tick_sched_timer wapes up the CPU 300+ times per
                    second
           Product: ACPI
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 5.8.14
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: Config-Interrupts
          Assignee: acpi_config-interru...@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
          Reporter: n...@kde.org
        Regression: No

I'm using a Lenovo X1 Yoga gen 3 laptop and am experiencing persistently low
battery life (see Bug 208191). While troubleshooting that, I discovered with
powertop that tick_sched_timer is consistently listed as having 300+ events per
second. This is the typical output of powertop  on my system:

Summary: 1584.2 wakeups/second,  0.0 GPU ops/seconds, 0.0 VFS ops/sec and 71.8%
CPU use

Power est.   Usage       Events/s    Category       Description
  3.75 W     45.0%                   Device         Display backlight
  1.37 W     6.7 ms/s     331.6      Timer          tick_sched_timer

This seems inappropriate.
