Maybe I'm totally wrong, but doesn't hackbench report execution so less is better? In that case -1.07% means we are doing better with the patches applied (after time < before time).

I will double-check that the stuff goes away as expected. I'm pretty sure it does on ARM. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
