This patchset aims to improve parallel I/O performance of the ext4 filesystem on fast storage devices like NVDIMM. Patch 1 eliminates duplicated inode_dio_begin()/inode_dio_end() calls. Patch 2 provides a set of simple percpu statistics count helper functions. Patch 3 converts some ext4 statistics counts into percpu counts using the helper functions.
