Hello Stefan, folks,

the regression proved to be there and stably reproducible. With NVMe 4k writes 
with jobs=10 and iodepth=4 I can see a 50% regression on my machine:

    https://ldoktor.github.io/tmp/RedHat-virtlab722/v8.0.0/150-regression.html

The rest of the cases doesn't show any change at all. I can provide more data 
if someone is interested.

Regards,
Lukáš
