It turns out to be exactly the same performance as with the 3rd patch
applied, so I guess it does have something to do with cache alignment.
Here is the patch (against vanilla) I ended up testing. Let me know if
I've botched it somehow.
So, I next up I'll play similar tricks to what you did (padding struct
block_device in all kernels) to eliminate the differences due to
structure alignment and provide a clear picture of what the locking
effects are.
Thanks!
Jeff
