Subject: [lkp-robot] [x86/entry/64]  63e02a2a32:
 will-it-scale.per_process_ops -13.0% regression


Greeting,

FYI, we noticed a -13.0% regression of will-it-scale.per_process_ops due to commit:


commit: 63e02a2a3292d8815eac7be438c8c73d72a7bb93 ("x86/entry/64: Create a per-CPU SYSCALL entry trampoline")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git master

in testcase: will-it-scale
on test machine: 32 threads Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2680 0 @ 2.70GHz with 64G memory
with following parameters:

	test: poll1
	cpufreq_governor: performance

test-description: Will It Scale takes a testcase and runs it from 1 through to n parallel copies to see if the testcase will scale. It builds both a process and threads based test in order to see any differences between the two.
test-url: https://github.com/antonblanchard/will-it-scale

In addition to that, the commit also has significant impact on the following tests:
