You're kidding, right?
0.3 sec boot time "improvement" for a kernel on which you run tests
which take orders of magnitude longer (I assume). And you want to hide
this message in the upstream kernel because you want to minimally speed
up *your* *specific* usage ?
And we still are wasting time talking about this?!
Oh boy.
