I am really surprised to see an improvement from this patch. I do not
expect your benchmarking would be using kmem limit. The above patch
hasn't really removed the page counter out of the picture so there
shouldn't be any real reason for performance improvement. I strongly
suspect this is just some benchmark artifact or unreliable evaluation.
