It's an Intel/Solidigm P5520 but other drives show similar results.
The mdraid configuration had it having 2 bitmap pages, which meant that the 'last' bitmap page was
being exercised in the random workload roughly 50% of the time, leading to this high latency result.


Here's a test on another system.
Raid10, Chunk-size 64M, bitmap-size 57228 bits
Without patch:
  write: IOPS=1676, BW=6708KiB/s (6869kB/s)(393MiB/60001msec); 0 zone resets

With patch:
  write: IOPS=15.7k, BW=61.4MiB/s (64.4MB/s)(3683MiB/60001msec); 0 zone resets

In the test scenario, both PHYS-SEC and LOG-SEC are 512, however MIN-IO and OPT-IO are 4k.
