plasmashell eats GPU when panel invisible (up); get back to normal when panel
visible (down)

I just did a pacman -Syu and kde told me that I'm on 6.4 now. Then I checked my
integrated intel GPU usage and found that plasmashell used almost 100% of it.

However, I did some tests and found that this only happens when the panel is
invisible:
If I configure the panel to always visible, this will never happens.
And when I set it to auto-hide then move my cursor to it to let it pop up, it
doesn's eat my GPU either.
But, when I use the panel's auto-hide mode, the plasmashell executable eats
lots of GPU when the panel is hidden.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Upgrade to plasma 6.4.1
2. Login to desktop
3. hide the panel
