It is very unfortunate that neither this nor Linux-kernel performance
tests that Yanmin and co tracks has caught these problems much before.
Ling Ma's focused tests/analysis for something else started showing
these basic issues.

Probably it is best if we can include the very basic checks/tests in the
kernel itself. More focused and extensive tests can be done outside the
kernel.
