You mean the debugging output? I can reenable it and record the results
if that's what you mean.

        if (tmp_loaded == -1) {

                if (!first_attempt && imbalance >= useful_load_threshold) {
                        rotate_irqs_among_cpus(useful_load_threshold);
                        return;
                }
                goto not_worth_the_effort;
        }
