Tried switching to 3.19 kernel - still high speed.
Tried switching to intel X driver instead of modesetting: CPU still runs at 
high speed.

The only changes I haven't backed out are:
a) The Ubuntu 15.10 userland.
b) The BIOS update from 1.07 to 1.10.

With absolutely quiescent system, under modesetting driver, CPU will
settle at 800MHz, but wiggling the mouse or outputting to an xterm
causes the CPU speed to rise. Under intel driver, an apparently
absolutely quiescent system seems to use more CPU than under
modesetting.

powertop is reporting power usage between 12 and 26 W, whereas
previously with 15.04 I had power usage of 5-8W.

Please help, this is killing me. No battery = no computer.
