I've found the solution:

The e1000e NIC had stopped working, which I hadn't
noticed since I'm nearly always on wireless.

Shutting down and starting again didn't solve
the problem.

I had to remove the battery from the laptop
and inserting it again after a few minutes
to get the NIC to reset.

No more high CPU load from events/[01].
