I'm on 18.04, and saw huge cpu use all of a sudden by 4 tasks called
kidle_inject running at 40% CPU each. I'm quite used to having this
Thinkpad x230 tablet run hot since graphics e.g. for video don't seem to
be accelerated. But in this case, the CPU and temperature as reported by
psensor was not elevated before the kidle_inject processes went into
overdrive. I'm not used to seeing them running normally.

I followed the advice at
 kidle_inject causing very high load - Ask Ubuntu
 https://askubuntu.com/questions/584636/kidle-inject-causing-very-high-load

to rmmod intel_powerclamp, and that killed the processes, but the
temperature went up a bit, now to 100 degrees C, again despite low CPU
load.

So something is going wrong here...
