Yunhan,

I haven't got a chance to make multiple runs to check the standard
deviation.  From the few runs I did, I got a 5.1% increase in
performance for aim7 shared workload for the complete rwsem patchset
on a similar machine that you are using.  The patches are applied
to the 3.12-rc7 and compared to the vanilla kernel.

Thanks.

Tim
