For the time being, I think we should focus on the new TLB flushing
interface posted by Joerg:

http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1502974596-23835-1-git-send-email-joro@8bytes.org

which looks like it can give us most of the benefits of this series. Once
we've got that, we can see what's left in the way of performance and focus
on the cmdq batching separately (because I'm still not convinced about it).

Thanks,

Will
