On my newly installed system using kernel 3.2 I see a kworker-thread which is constantly consuming CPU. I'd like to find out which part of kernel/module has created this workqueue.

How to track a kworker-thread named for example ''kworker/0:3 to its origin in kernel-space?

I tried to look into /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/workqueue, but wasn't able to figure it out.
