I'm not opposed to sending them for the current merge (we still have a week) purely because this code has been around for quite a long time and is overdue for landing upstream. Mikulas' recent change is localized to adding the knob to shutoff offloading write bios to a separate thread -- so nothing that should invalidate prior testing, etc. Let me know what you guys think and please share results. If we have the results ideally we can decide by end of day Thursday. I will rebase real quick to get these changes at the front of the dm-for-3.20 followon work.
