Hi, Maciej,

1. The current trend is to use generic code, so I think this work is
worth it, even if there is some performance loss.
2. We tested the performance on 5.15-rc1~rc5 and the performance
loss on JZ4780 (SMP off) is not so obvious (about -3%).
3. Yanjie, is there any problem with the code base you tested?
Could you help to test patch v3 on the latest mainline kernel?

Thanks,
Feiyang
