Public bug reported:

Today I noticed that my two primary Ubuntu boxes were running at high
load.  After investigation, I discovered at that unmounting their CIFS
shares alleviating the high load.

I rebooted to the previous kernel, linux-modules-6.2.0-39-generic, and
saw that the load was low after everything had settled after startup.

I rebooted to the current kernel, linux-modules-6.5.0-14-generic, and
again saw the high load.

The load appears to be n+1, where n is the number of CIFS mounts.
(Based on a sample of two boxes.)

I confirmed that the default mount options (e.g. the ones not specified
in fstab) are the same between the two kernels.

This *might* also be slowing down external (USB  disk access.  I'm still
investigating that.
