Right now we use only 4K out of the 64k page allocated for the level 4 page
table. W.r.t the performance impact due to lock contention, with ebizzy
256 threads:
without patch (10 runs of ./ebizzy -m -n 1000 -s 131072 -S 100)
median = 15678.5
stdev = 42.1209
with patch:
median = 15354
stdev = 194.743
This is with THP disabled. With THP enabled the impact of the patch will be less.
