Brian, the kernel from your PPA does indeed seem to help a little bit. I was getting an average of something like 140 wakes per second and now the average is around 100.
My computer still seems to spend a lot of time doing housekeeping... for example a recent powertop output: 31,2% ( 78,4) [extra timer interrupt] 21,1% ( 53,0) [kernel scheduler] Load balancing tick 18,5% ( 46,4) [iwlagn] <interrupt> 9,3% ( 23,5) firefox-bin 4,0% ( 10,0) [kernel core] r600_audio_update_hdmi (r600_audio_update_hdmi) 4,0% ( 10,0) ubuntuone-syncd 3,7% ( 9,4) [kernel core] hrtimer_start (tick_sched_timer) 70 wakeups doing something I care about (wireless and Firefox) and 160 doing... other stuff. Anyway thanks for the kernel, at least it's something until a fix gets backported officially!
