This is just a refactoring patch and doesn't change any logic.
Hence I'm sceptical that it actually resulted in a performance
regression. Indeed, the profile indicates a significant change of
behaviour in the allocator and I can't see how the commit above
would cause anything like that.
Was this a result of a bisect? If so, what were the original kernel
versions where the regression was detected?
Cheers,
Dave.
