Bug Description
Powertop reports knotify4 generating many interrupts:
18.4% ( 92.2) knotify4 : schedule_timeout (process_timeout)
after attaching to the process with strace one can see:
stat("/
lseek(24, 439, SEEK_SET) = 439
stat("/
lseek(24, 439, SEEK_SET) = 439
stat("/
close(24) = 0
on every mouse move,every click etc
This is unnecessary utilizing battery on laptop systems

Not sure if this is related, but it crashes on exit and prevents an exit. If I confirm the crash, kde4 will continue to shut down. Oddly, if I merely log off, there is no message that I can see. I started a thread in kubuntu forums and it has already gotten replies that the issue is happening with them.
