In doing high IOPS testing, blk-mq is generally pretty well optimized. There are a few things that stuck out as using more CPU than what is really warranted, and one thing is the round_jiffies_up() that we do twice for each request. That accounts for about 0.8% of the CPU in my testing. We can make this cheaper by avoiding an integer division, by just adding a rough HZ mask that we can AND with instead. The timeouts are only on a second granularity already, we don't have to be that accurate here and this patch barely changes that. All we care about is nice grouping.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
