In general this looks good, but I wonder how intensively this has
been tested ? Also given the long latencies when using manual
clock on/off support, have you done any testing to check what
sort of latencies this adds, e.g. Both with and without
the patch, dump all the filesystem caches:

echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

And then do:

time cat /some/small/file/on/the/sdcard

Do this at least 3 time both with and without the patch, and see
if there are any noticable differences ?

Regards,

Hans
