I don't have this data for HMM and VFIO as they have other benefits from this
series except performance. For NVMe, I don't have the data yet, but it will
come https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1730037261.git.leon@xxxxxxxxxx/,
as it is the main performant user of this API.

This is the main reason why NVMe series is marked as RFC yet.
