Subject: [lkp-robot] [fs]  91f9943e1c:  aim7.jobs-per-min -26.6% regression


Greeting,

FYI, we noticed a -26.6% regression of aim7.jobs-per-min due to commit:


commit: 91f9943e1c7b6638f27312d03fe71fcc67b23571 ("fs: support RWF_NOWAIT for buffered reads")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master

in testcase: aim7
on test machine: 40 threads Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2690 v2 @ 3.00GHz with 384G memory
with following parameters:

	disk: 4BRD_12G
	md: RAID1
	fs: xfs
	test: disk_rd
	load: 9000
	cpufreq_governor: performance

test-description: AIM7 is a traditional UNIX system level benchmark suite which is used to test and measure the performance of multiuser system.
test-url: https://sourceforge.net/projects/aimbench/files/aim-suite7/



Details are as below:
