Maybe use a more selective testing mode instead of -az.
Also maybe you want to clear the cache between the sequential and random tests:
#sync 
#echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches 
#sync 
It helps to obtain a more robust results.

How come 22.7MB/s before vs. 22.1MB/s after is better?  or did I misunderstand the output?
Also as dd is probably using the buffer cache, unlike the iozone test  in which you properly used -I
for direct mode to isolate the blk-mq effect - does it really say much?
