Full run would take one or two weeks depended on our resource available. Could you pick some ones up, e.g. those have performance regression?

>>> ------------------
>>> Changes since v10 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/17/572):
>>> - Accounted for all review feedbacks from Punit Agrawal, Ganesh Mahendran
>>> and Minchan Kim, hopefully.
>>> - Remove unneeded check on CONFIG_SPECULATIVE_PAGE_FAULT in
>>> __do_page_fault().
>>> - Loop in pte_spinlock() and pte_map_lock() when pte try lock fails
>>> instead
>>> of aborting the speculative page fault handling. Dropping the now
>>> useless
>>> trace event pagefault:spf_pte_lock.
>>> - No more try to reuse the fetched VMA during the speculative page fault
>>> handling when retrying is needed. This adds a lot of complexity and
>>> additional tests done didn't show a significant performance improvement.
>>> - Convert IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NUMA) back to #ifdef due to build error.
