Hi Richard, hi list,

I got around to devote some time to my patchsets and while working on my
ubd block read one, I observed the following behaviour with stock 4.8.0-rc7

On a freshly booted image, stock 4.8.0-rc7, Debian jessie userspace:

root@wyvern-uml:~# while true; do dd if=/dev/ubda of=/dev/null bs=1M ; done
4096+0 records in
4096+0 records out

4096+0 records in
4096+0 records out
4294967296 bytes (4.3 GB) copied, 10.2111 s, 421 MB/s

This gets progressively worse until it reaches about 380MB/s in 5-10
more runs. The rate at which it slows down decreases overtime.
