Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: laptop-mode-tools

When enabling battery polling in /etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/battery-level-
polling.conf, switching to battery results in crashing the laptop with
100% CPU usage, most of it being IOWait. Using htop I was able to see a
lot of laptop-mode battery-related processes running just before
crashing. When the laptop crashes, it usually has very high HDD usage
and is unresponsive to any keys. Magic SysRq key always works in
rebooting the laptop. I was able to fix this by disabling battery level
polling.
