It's just the I/O scheduler, not the CPU one. It will have zero impact on typical router workloads. The only thing that might get slower is heavy multi-threaded disk I/O, which is probably an extremely rare occurence on LEDE. Also, at least according to that linked phoronix benchmark, even on some of these workloads, no-op can be competitive ;)
