Some further searching turned up this relevant thread on the kernel
mailing list:

http://www.listware.net/201007/linux-kernel/16253-high-power-
consumption-in-recent-kernels.html

A patch is tested there which resulted in a very big reduction in
wakeups and power consumption. There is a lot of technical discussion in
that thread which I did not understand but seems important. Comments by
a Ubuntu kernel expert would be very welcome.....
