FWIW I've just booted one of our LBs on it and am hammering it at full
load with pti enabled and will let it run for the week-end. It takes
860k irq/s and about 1.7M syscalls/s. For now it works well (but slowly).
Hopefully if there are any rare race conditions left it has a chance to
trigger them.
