I highly doubt that he saw what you have now:
Your commit message is talking about virtualized environments but your diff is
doing a global, unconditional change which affects *everything*.
If we are going to do this, we need to put this at least through the
meatgrinder and run it on *everything* that's out there and see what falls out
before we make it the default.
But if tglx thinks this is fine, I won't object - I've uttered my scepticism
already.
