I suggest trying out the suggestions listed here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/31/68

In particular, if you look at the PID of the kworker using nearly 100%
of a core, you could run: (using the above output from top)

# cat /proc/91/stack 

And you'll see what function(s) it is running.  This will give you an
idea of what task it is spinning on.
