It seems that the unexpected big mmap-pread-seq-mt perf drop came from the mistake I
made in patch 1. After fixing that, mmap-pread-seq-mt perf only drops 0.5%. The new
results on top of 6.7.0-rc1-mm-everything-2023-11-15-00-17 are at the end of the email.
I am preparing v2 and will send it out soon.
