Subject: [PATCH] EROFS: Replace erofs_unzipd workqueue with per-cpu threads
Using per-cpu thread pool we can reduce the scheduling latency compared
to workqueue implementation. With this patch scheduling latency and
variation is reduced as per-cpu threads are SCHED_FIFO kthread_workers.
The results were evaluated on arm64 Android devices running 5.10 kernel.
The table below shows resulting improvements of total scheduling latency
for the same app launch benchmark runs with 50 iterations. Scheduling
latency is the latency between when the task (workqueue kworker vs
kthread_worker) became eligible to run to when it actually started
running.
