Bug Description

When I start my ASUS Z53J F3JC with the wireless switch set to OFF the Duo T5500 CPU is constantly overloaded to 70% and more.

If I move the switch to ON load of every core goes down becoming regular.

Maybe a kernel bug?

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.
