Hi Salvatore, meanwhile, Dell has replaced the mainboard of my laptop, and after that, both the USB over-current kernel messages and the kworker processes with high CPU load are gone. Many thanks for caring about my bug report! Best regards, Dirk. Am 29.08.20 um 11:26 schrieb Salvatore

Hi Salvatore, I just want to inform you that I've installed the recent kernel from the Buster backports, 5.7.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.7.10-1~bpo10+1 (2020-07-30) x86_64 GNU/Linux, and I'm still seeing the two kworker processes with high CPU load, probably related to the two USB ports

Hi Salavatore, I have kernel "linux-image-4.19.0-10-amd64/stable,now 4.19.132-1 amd64" installed, so it should already include the mentioned commit, if I understand correctly (I'm a bit confused by the two different version numbers used by Debian). I have also tried the most recent kernel

Hi Salvatore, I just found out, that if none of the two USB ports is connected, there are two kworker processes with permanently high CPU load, if one USB port is connected and the other not, there is one such kworker process, and if both USB ports are connected, there is no kworker process
