artifact.ci's head -r356602 does not have the problem.
artifact.ci's head -r356610 has the problem.

There are no armv7 builds in artifact.ci between those.

head -r356609 is a sys/dev/iicbux/twsi change and so
looks the most likely given the top result:

 PID USERNAME    PRI NICE   SIZE    RES STATE    C   TIME     CPU COMMAND
. . .
 815 root        -100    0  4424K  2000K twsi     0   0:00   0.01% /usr/sbin/powerd
. . .

with its -100 for PRI. (Previously 0 in the no-problem cases.)

I've no clue if it is powerd that is doing something
odd exposed by the -r356609 update vs. if it is the
update that is doing something odd and powerd just
happens to expose that it does.
