heres 120 seconds of enabled todos, from this patch

[jimc@frodo wk-next]$ journalctl -b0 | grep todo | grep 'frodo kernel'
[jimc@frodo wk-next]$ sudo su -c 'echo format ^todo: +pfml >
/proc/dynamic_debug/control;  sleep 120; echo format ^todo: -p >
/proc/dynamic_debug/control'
[sudo] password for jimc:
[jimc@frodo wk-next]$ journalctl -b0 | grep todo | grep 'frodo kernel'
 > todo-120-log
[jimc@frodo wk-next]$ wc todo-120-log
  228  2516 24066 todo-120-log

so overall thats not too much work, not so many bitchecks as to be
worth avoiding.

I think I'll try hitting it with my new igt-tools hammer, see what breaks :-)
