You are right, this is independent from intr, while it is "always" in
WAIT, but the load average dependend on r233599. See the attached
graph.

The datasets are generated in single user boot ( top -s 1 -S -d 200 -m
cpu ) , with/without r233599. Without the ule patch, the load
decreased normally, but with r233599 it's hold to 0.5.
