I did git-bisect on the linux-block tree's for-5.16/block branch and this patch
resolves the random high CPU utilization issue (I'm not sure how):
dc5fc361d891 ("block: attempt direct issue of plug list")
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux-block.git/commit/?h=for-5.16/block&id=dc5fc361d891e089dfd9c0a975dc78041036b906

Do you think if it's easy to backport it to earlier versions like 5.10?
It looks like there are a lot of prerequisite patches.

Thanks,
Dexuan
