Comment (by Sebastian):

 Why are these notice messages? If the user hasn't explicitly configured
 anything wrt KIST, I don't think *any* of those should be logged at
 notice.

 Also, while this is fixed, please add a better explanation to the manpage,
 it currently says:

 {{{
      **Vanilla**: The scheduler that tor has always used that is do as
 much as
      possible or AMAP.
 }}}

 I have no idea what AMAP is and the term is also not explained in the
 manpage anywhere else. It doesn't even occur again in the entirety of the
 tor source code.
