Merge patch series "target: Remove atomics from main IO path"
Mike Christie <michael.christie@oracle.com> says: The following patches made over Linus's tree remove the atomic use from the main IO path. There was a handful of atomic_longs used just used for stats and a couple atomics used for handling ordered commands. These patches move the stats to per cpu, and moves the ordered tracking to a per cpu counter. With the patches 8K IOPS increases by up to 33% when running fio with numjobs >= 4 and using the vhost-scsi target with virtio-scsi and virtio num_queues >= 4 (jobs and queues match, and virtqueue_size and cmd_per_lun are increased to match the total iodepth of all jobs).
