Title:
  Abnormally high battery discharge rate on Lenovo T420

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have upgraded from12.04 to 14.04 on a Lenovo T420 laptop
  (Corei7-2620M CPU @ 2.70GHz × 4 + Sandybridge Mobile). Whereas with
  12.04 the battery discharge rate would stay somewhere between 10 - 12
  W/h, with 14.04 it remains persistently over 30 W/h.

  The discharge rate came closer to normal after an upgrade by late May.
  But last week, apparently after an upgrade to linux-headers-generic,
  the abnormally high discharge rate is back.

  This thread at AskUbuntu details what I have tried (unsuccessfully) to
  identify the cause of this problem:
