From: Florian-Ewald Mueller <florian-ewald.mueller@ionos.com> mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.11-rc1 commit 3821bbad0d0fbb6c9d77987bd54c89348752056d category: bugfix bugzilla: 190197 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i... -------------------------------- Check for sleeping thread before attempting its wake_up in md_wakeup_thread() to avoid unnecessary spinlock contention. With a 6.1 kernel, fio random read/write tests on many (>= 100) virtual volumes, of 100 GiB each, on 3 md-raid5s on 8 SSDs each (building a raid50), show by 3 to 4 % improved IOPS performance.
