Can you split the guts of this function into two separate helpers
for the mq vs non-mq case?  As is is is a little hard to read and
introduced extra branches in the fast path.
I know your consideration, actually I had ever tried.

I can extract some helper functions, but I'm doubted if the extra
function call is acceptable.

Besides, the iteration logic is generic and I'm afraid the branch or
function call is unavoidable. Or if we maintain two separate function
for mq and dm, the code duplication may be unavoidable.

Anyway I'll give a try.
