I've separated the buglet fix parts from the rest, so there are four

testing phase at least, I personally think it would be better to leave
the knobs there for people to twiddle. Something Willy said indicated
to me that 'credit' would be more palatable than 'grace', so I've
renamed and updated comments to match. I think it might look better,
but can't know since 'grace' was perfectly fine for my taste buds ;-)

I'll post as soon as I do some more cleanup pondering and verification.

Great. I suggest making the base patch have the values hard coded as #defines
and then have a patch on top that turns those into userspace tunables we can
hand tune while in -mm which can then be dropped if/when merged upstream.
