Liam, many thx for your reply. I known that you are still working on optimizing things in this area again, so I don't think this is worth tracking this as a regression: that doesn't buy us much afaics. And it might not be a regression at all anyway (not totally sure, didn't look into the details due to the former aspect; sounded a bit like the problem only can be seen in a microbenchmark; whatever).
#regzbot resolve: not worth tracking
Ciao, Thorsten (wearing his 'the Linux kernel's regression tracker' hat) -- Everything you wanna know about Linux kernel regression tracking: https://linux-regtracking.leemhuis.info/about/#tldr If I did something stupid, please tell me, as explained on that page.
