 For my system's kernel I just undid that one revision I mentioned 
 earlier. No ill-effects observed. Since the change is so low-level and 
 there is no rationale provided in the commit message, I do not know what 
 improvement it was supposed to achieve. I tried e-mailing the author of 
 that commit, but got no response.
 Also, due to the low-power nature of my system, I can't test if the 0.60 
 load is real, or just a by-product of broken time accounting. Either way 
 it might be affecting the process scheduler.
