Public bug reported: When I plug in a second Monitor using a DisplayPort cable, the system becomes barely responsive (all you can do is move the mouse very slow) and [kworker/1:2] is using 100% CPU in top. A few seconds after pulling the cable out the system works normally again.
Filing this against the driver and not the kernel as the nvidia driver works somewhat fine.
