you can change the burst threshold: sysctl_sched_migration_cost, to see
what's happen with different value. create a similar knob and tune it.

+	if (cpu_rq(this_cpu)->avg_idle < sysctl_sched_migration_cost)
+		burst_this = 1;
+	if (cpu_rq(prev_cpu)->avg_idle < sysctl_sched_migration_cost)
+		burst_prev = 1;

BTW, what's the job thread behaviour of pgbench, guess it has lots of
wakeup. what's the work and sleep ratio of pgbench?
