That sounds reasonable.

If there isn't a concrete usecase already, let's not add another
commandline parameter for now.

Unfortunately, this grows the psi state touched by the scheduler into
a second cacheline. :( Please reclaim space first.
I think we can remove the NR_CPU task count, which frees up one
u32. Something like the below diff should work (untested!)
And you should be able to remove PSI_IRQ_SOME, since it's not used
anyway. Then we'd be good to go.
