In testing, we found that the performance in large VMs (~90 cores) was
severely impacted by these changes. Upstream also chose to later
revert these patches from linux-next:
http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1603.0/02726.html
I suggest we drop them for now and await a more suitable fix for LP: #1549494.
The following changes since commit c3a461f342afc842d56df5dff8cbabd3437ce083:
