Actually I did that first when my confidence was high. No obvious interest.  The signal to noise ratio is pretty high. David B. did comment.  As its important for OMAP I'll make sure to continue to follow up.

EHCI probably will gain.

The last recent timer fix I pushed which Tony helped with also was caught the same kind of effect at OMAP.  It showed up as MP3 (with low interrupt load) taking much more MHz then it should.  But that was not as a dramatic impact as the high interrupt load cases.

As you can see ETM is really cool ;)
