What would those be? For non-interruptible reads and writes, the overhead
comes down to an additional function call (if we don't make pg_write_nointr
inlined) and a few conditional jumps (which branch prediction should be
able to take care of). These are bound to disappear in the noise compared
to the cost of the actual syscall.
