I personally feel that some patches in this series have a relevant
chance of introducing functional regressions and e.g. syzbot will not
help to catch them. That risk is IMHO relevant considered that the
performance gain here looks quite limited.

There are a few individual changes that IMHO looks like nice cleanup
e.g. patch 5, 6, 8, 9 and possibly even patch 1.

I suggest to reduce the patchset scope to them.

Thanks!

Paolo
