Have you measured the actual overhead of this extra layer under real workload?

Admittedly, I tend to agree with upstream that this patch (or rather, eight
patches) is dubious and does not solve something otherwise unsolvable.  Keeping
this size of patchset in the port means we'd have to resolve potential
conflicts upon updates and provide support/bugfixes for this custom code,
that's something we'd want to avoid.  If it would be merged upstream but e.g.
disabled by default, we could enable it in the port, but keeping big chunks of
code in the port itself is bad practice.
