i have not tested the patched kernel in natty but as far as oneiric goes the power regression is significantly higher than it was ever in Natty... i see 22 W idle and upto 34 W usage on normal browsing in oneiric 3.0.0.11 which is the Oneiric Beta 2 kernel... it was mentioned in #179 that the fix has been released, but despite having a first generation core i3-370M processor. I cant report a duplicate bug about the same issue . Please fix it in Oneiric or atleast keep a seperate older kernel based on 2.6.37.6 or earlier seperately for laptop users.....
