Today I found the following patch makes a big difference on aarch64
nvme io polling, and you can try that in your test:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/YNwfY6kExqJM65+L@T590/T/#m934fabf588d709109fd99040a3e26d7a9838db1f
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/YNwfY6kExqJM65+L@T590/T/#m4504b01d06566b2080216640625fac5fdd3929e5

BTW, my test machine is ampere(160cores, dual numa nodes).


Thanks,
Ming
