Subject: [mm] 5ae8a9d7c8: will-it-scale.per_thread_ops -2.1% regression

Greeting,

FYI, we noticed a -2.1% regression of will-it-scale.per_thread_ops due to commit:


commit: 5ae8a9d7c84e7e6fa64ccaa357a1351015f1457c ("[RFC PATCH 4/4] mm: Add PG_zero support")
url: https://github.com/0day-ci/linux/commits/liliangleo/mm-Add-PG_zero-support/20200412-172834


in testcase: will-it-scale
on test machine: 8 threads Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770K CPU @ 3.50GHz with 16G memory
with following parameters:

	nr_task: 100%
	mode: thread
	test: page_fault1
	cpufreq_governor: performance
	ucode: 0x21

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



If you fix the issue, kindly add following tag
