@tgabi: Sorry for the false alarm. I had an incorrect patch laying around, but the correct patch should be in the kernel I listed above. I also tested the patch against a test program I have attached. Without the patch, the test program will ensure at least 90% processor usage, but I have confirmed that without any other running processes the load avg can be 0.00. With my patch, the load avg is accurate at 0.90 or above when the test program is running.
