I ran into this issue recently (extra long sync times) and have been trying the
patches attached in this thread.  The above patch specifically causes a pretty
significant performance regression for me doing a simple sequential dd write on
a dual-core Atom system running 2.6.33.4 x86_64.  This command:
dd bs=1M conv=fsync if=/dev/zero of=test_file count=10000
went from 135 MB/sec to all the way down to 92.9 MB/sec.  Is this expected?
