I can do such test to satisfy your curiosity, but that doesn't sound the right fix. See, almost all TV and set top boxes(STB) run Linux nowadays and usually come with ARM cpus designed to "just do their job" (e. g. CPUs with low clocks). There, power consumption is a must. This bug very likely affect those devices, once migrated to Kernel 4.9+. Changing from NO_HZ to HZ=1000 on TV/STB will for sure have bad side effects on those types of devices, increasing power consumption. Not saying that this will be environmentally very bad, as the number of just TV unit sales is at the order of 230 million units per year[1].
