Subject: High load from process irq/65-i2c-INT3 - kernel module tps6598x

Hi all,

I was made aware in the following launchpad bug report, that I should report the issue directly with the upstream maintainers: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1883511

As mentioned in the report, I experience high cpu load due to an interrupted irq/65-i2c-INT3 process. A short fix is to unload the kernel module tps6598x.

Please be lenient with me, since I’ve got no glue whether I’m doing this correctly.

In case you need more details/logs/information, please let me know.

Kind regards
Juergen
