Rashly speculating that turning mobile kthread component loose is what
helped your write regression...

You could try adding (p->flags & PF_KTHREAD) to the wakeup patch to
only turn hard working kthreads loose to try to dodge service latency.
Seems unlikely wakeup frequency * instances would combine to shred fio
the way turning tbench loose did.
