We spend a lot of time to never touch the old rq->lock on wakeups. Mason was the one pushing for that, so he should very well know this. The one cross-cpu atomic (iowait) is already a problem (the whole iowait accounting being useless makes it even worse), adding significant remote prodding is just really bad.
