Is this literally just removing it entirely? Because apart from the
latency spike at 4 procs (and the latency numbers look very noisy, so
that's probably just noise), it looks clearly superior to everything
else. On that benchmark, at least.

How does pgbench look? That's the one that apparently really wants to
spread out, possibly due to user-level spinlocks. So I assume it will
show the reverse pattern, with "kill select_idle_sibling" being the
worst case. Sad, because it really would be lovely to just remove that
thing ;)
