Excellent, thanks.

I've pushed both v8 patches to mmc-next.  Before pushing it up to Linus,
I'd like to get a better idea of the variety of performances differences
seen using packed writes -- has it been tried on devices from multiple
eMMC vendors, and multiple host controller vendors?  Can we try to build
up a quick table of results, with a standard test like iozone, to check
that we've got decent test coverage?  Seungwon suggests using:

iozone -az -i0 -I -s 10m -f /target/test -e

I'm also worried about how much code this is adding, but I agree that
it's worth it if the performance benefits are as described.

Thanks,

- Chris.
