I will test it when I get the patch, and post the compared result with

Could you please try the attached patch? My guess is that it should
improve the performance, perhaps by a big margin.
Further improvement is possible by eliminating page copies, but that
is less trivial.
Thanks,

Using the same test model. And the test result is:
1. Latency
virtiofs: avg-lat is 15.40 usec, bigger than before(6.64 usec).

According to the result, the patch doesn't work and make it worse than
before.
