Then would it constantly consider migrating that flow since the busy-ness of the core would be above a threshold while others are idle? Again (after migrating) to figure out that the new core is super busy while others are idle and so on ...? A sort of thrashing effect.

When a port considers migration (to reduce its load), it consults the 
last 128 seen events dequeued on that port. If all those events 
originate from the same flow, no flow will be migrated.
