Maybe I did not make it clear enough. The above setup is only
for demonstration purposes. To expose the problem better. In
real life we can see stalls tat thange from 0.5-1 seconds. Even
with all caches active, small dirty writeback settings and unlimited
bandwidth.
In between I found others complaining about the same problem:

So just one last question: Can I savely revert the the mentioned
commit d76ee18a8551e33ad7dbd55cac38bc7b094f3abb if I only
write data to a battery backed up hardware raid controller on a
server that is attached to an UPS?
Thanks in advance.
