It's not generally considered to be a wonderful benchmark, but it is a
good indicator, and worth keeping an eye on IMHO.

I don't recall whether that patch works with the idle testcase without
resetting the throttle, or if it's only a bit less effective.  If it's
only a little less effective, I'd be inclined to just whack the reset as
Alex did.  Whatever is done has to prevent high frequency balancing.
