Bug Description
This occurred with a clean install of Ubuntu 10.10 reverting to kernel 2.6.34-02063407 resolved the issue. Now I've upgraded to 11.04 problem has reoccurred.
Laptop is Lenovo T400 with latest bios update. Periodically system will freeze for approx 10-15 seconds then control can be regained but mouse moment is jerky for another 10-15 seconds. Multiple kworker processes use approx 50-90% CPU when view using top. After approx 30 seconds from start of issue control is back to normal.
Issue seems to occur randomly, sometimes hours after boot, sometimes minutes.

I forgot to mention when this occurred in 10.10 process was kslowd, not kworker. It happened on all kernel versions post 2.6.34.
