It does very little else that should affect things.  You're sure
reverting the commit makes things ok?

Other potential problems:
  - clock gating (the call to intel_init_clock_gating)
  - the actual mark_busy stuff itself (calls to intel_mark_busy)
  - intel_idle_update (but powersave=0 should prevent that)

If you want to keep testing you could try removing those calls...
