Hello Abel,
I've retested the patches with on the updated tip and the results
are still promising.
tl;dr
o Hackbench sees improvements when the machine is overloaded.
o tbench shows improvements when the machine is overloaded.
o The unixbench regression seen previously seems to be unrelated
to the patch as the spawn test scores are vastly different
after a reboot/kexec for the same kernel.
o Other benchmarks show slight improvements or are comparable to
the numbers on tip.
