@Swâmi, I've tried to reproduce this on a few machines with no luck as yet. Just to eliminate any misbehaving application that may be doing writes (and possibly) causing this problem can you do the following:
sudo apt-get install fatrace sudo apt-get install powertop-1.13 sudo power-usage-report > report.log and attach report.log to the bug report.
