I have to take the blame for this bit :-)

I would be surprised the static_key gives us anything here, but that is 
actually not the point here. It is purely to know whether we have to be 
capacity aware or not. I don't think we are in a critical path and the
variable providing the necessary condition just happened to be a
static_key.

We might be able to make better use of it if we refactor the code a bit.
