Wouldn't this also filter out IO wait time as that means sleeping, thus
again defeat the purpose of observing real stalls due to memory shortage?
If cpu starvation (due to overcommited system?) affects pci memstall
accuracy then that's suboptimal, but IMHO fixing it this way would do more
harm than good?
