Liam, many thx for your reply. I known that you are still working on
optimizing things in this area again, so I don't think this is worth
tracking this as a regression: that doesn't buy us much afaics. And it
might not be a regression at all anyway (not totally sure, didn't look
into the details due to the former aspect; sounded a bit like the
problem only can be seen in a microbenchmark; whatever).

#regzbot resolve: not worth tracking

Ciao, Thorsten (wearing his 'the Linux kernel's regression tracker' hat)
