I ran the same fio test you did (in the previous thread where you did
the switch to percpu local to DM, rather than in block) _except_ I used
a ramdisk-based pmem device rather than a pure ramdisk:

fio --ioengine=psync --iodepth=1 --rw=read --bs=512 --direct=1 --numjobs=12 --time_based --runtime=10 --group_reporting --name=/dev/pmem0

2 6-core processors (w/ HT, so 24 logical cpus):

/dev/pmem0                                        14.6M
/dev/pmem0 with percpu counters                   14.8M
/dev/mapper/linear                                4736k
/dev/mapper/linear with percpu counters           4595k

It is only after I apply this commit that I can realize a big
performance win:

/dev/mapper/linear with percpu + pending removed  11.2M
