Hmmm... seat of the pants I am getting about 20% less battery life using 2.6.38 & 2.6.39-rc kernels. My netbook is an Acer AO721-3574 with AMD Neo K125 (single core). I'm running Debian Unstable (Sid) with drm/mesa/xf86-video-ati from git.
The only things that I have changed in kernel config over the last couple of months are the addition of CONFIG_CGROUP_SCHED, CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED, & CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE.
It will be interesting to see what the cause is.
