Hi,
It seems the bug, at least in my case, was caused by the acpi battery
kernel module reporting the battery as connected and disconnected
continuously.
Since I upgraded my kernel to 3.2.18-1 the battery icon stopped
flipping on and off and the cpu use by upowerd is pretty much normal.
upowerd --monitor shows a change in battery state every 20 seconds or so:
upower --monitor
Monitoring activity from the power daemon. Press Ctrl+C to cancel.
