Public bug reported:

Hi,

Recently, I got kernel linux-generic-hwe-20.04 installed, so 5.11.0.x.
Not sure if I intended to, as I already tested when it was based on
5.8.x, but got the same issue... So, well, as many, I use Zoom client
(latest deb file downloaded from Zoom site) on the following laptop:

Manufacturer: Dell Inc.
Product Name: Latitude 7400
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8665U CPU @ 1.90GHz

With linux-generic-hwe-20.04 based on 5.8.x, I noticed a huge increase
of CPU used by Zoom (just looking at top), sometimes having 350% when
someones was sharing screen.

With linux-generic-hwe-20.04 based on 5.11. the CPU usage seems correct,
but the load average get doubled after a moment, and the system becomes
far less usable.

Going back to linux-kernel 5.4.0-84-generic, and performance is stable, even 
without thinking about
changing the CPU governor to performance.
