A little complex for the whole thing.
on 4 sockets EX machine, 3~5% hackbench thread regression due to 4dcfe
can be recovered by ab2789.

But on 2 sockets SNB machine, 1024 clients loop netperf TCP-RR has about
9% regression. and your patch seem recover 2~3%.

And on a 2 sockets nhm, one of our private benchmark was impact much 20
+% regression. that benchmark just run 4 process, each of process open a
thread, and the thread tasks is to locate randomly pages and than read
from 4 times/write 1 time data into a page. The ab2789 commit seems no
help our benchmark.
