Nope, no improvement at all, furthermore, the machine locked up once
under heavy disk activity.

I just got an 8ms+ latency from rt_run_flush that looks basically
identical to the above.  It's still flushing routes in huge batches:

$ grep 'call_rcu_bh (rt_run_flush)' /proc/latency_trace | wc -l
2738
