Yup.

These kind of things can be a bit annoying.  The fix to not subtract
load that we never added in the first place also pushed hackbench
around a bit.  Do anything at all with load_avg, you're gonna push
this/that benchmark around a bit, and folks who watch numbers closely
can end up chasing meaningless deltas.
