Just skimmed through it and it looks like we're getting lower IO rate
w/ way higher task switch rate. Maybe this is more pronounced w/
btrfs because it also makes heavy use of worker threads. Alexander,
can you please look into it? It looks like we might have to revert
the commit, drop the threaded IRQ and do the split locking after that.
Thanks.
