Ping! I am hopeful that this patch [1] can be picked up for the 4.8 merge window in the arm64 tree. As I mentioned in my last patch series that included this patch [2], I'm hopeful that this version addresses the performance issues that were seen with Mark's original patch. This version tests the TIF flags prior to calling out to the loop in C code.
I still need to get round to measuring that again. This might also conflict with a late fix I just sent for 4.7. Is your task isolation series all ready apart from this? It seems like there's still discussion over there. Will
