Regarding the meat of the patch:

>-                      udelay(1);
>+                      schedule();
>  
>
We're still double-checking this on our ia64 platforms (which were
showing 5-10% CPU on that thread).

Doesn't this schedule() call negate the speedup sought by the
extra thread in the first place?  What about keeping the udelay
but making it multiples of HZ?
