it seems you don't like the patch for some personal reasons, and now your are
trying to find arguments against it. The best method to get the perfomance
implications is trying it (the patched kernel).

If you introduce something new (higher resolution clock), you should start with
something clean. Just hacking it in the first attempt, anf then making it
beautiful in a second attempt is a waste of time IMHO.
