Subject[RFC PATCH-tip 6/6] xfs: Enable reader optimistic spinning for DAX inodes
Date
This patch enables reader optimistic spinning for inodes that are
under a DAX-based mount point.

On a 4-socket Haswell machine running on a 4.7-rc1 tip-based kernel,
the fio test with multithreaded randrw and randwrite tests on the
same file on a XFS partition on top of a NVDIMM with DAX were run,
the aggregated bandwidths before and after the patch were as follows:

Test BW before patch BW after patch % change
---- --------------- -------------- --------
randrw 1352 MB/s 2164 MB/s +60%
randwrite 1710 MB/s 2550 MB/s +49%
