Mmm, that's a be careful what you wish for thing.  I flushed that one
down the toilet because while lowest possible service latency always
sounds super sexy, it has down sides. Rabid migration does not do great
things for throughput, for instance, that patch slagged the throughput
gain for tbench that put DELAY_DEQUEUE equipped kernels back on par
with pre-EEVDF kernels.  Not a keeper.
