Migrate reserves are not a stable material I am afraid. "vmstat:
explicitly schedule per-cpu work on the CPU we need it to run on"
was not marked for stable either but I am not sure why it should make
any difference for your load. I understand that testing this is really
tedious but it would be better to know which of the patches actually
made a difference.
