Byungchul, a quick question.
have you measured the performance impact? somehow my linux-next is
notably slower than earlier 4.13 linux-next. (e.g. scrolling in vim
is irritatingly slow)
`time dmesg' shows some difference, but probably that's not a good
test.
!LOCKDEP LOCKDEP LOCKDEP -CROSSRELEASE -COMPLETIONS
real 0m0.661s 0m2.290s 0m1.920s
user 0m0.010s 0m0.105s 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.636s 0m2.224s 0m1.888s
anyone else "sees"/"can confirm" the slow down?
it gets back to "usual normal" when I disable CROSSRELEASE and COMPLETIONS.
