I'll share the actual results which shows the improvement whenever 
available on our next chips. Current version of Qualcomm qdf2400 doesn't 
support multi socket configuration to capture results and share with you. 

Do you see any other issues with this patch apart from the performance 
improvements. I strongly believe this brings the noticeable improvement 
in numbers on systems where it has multi node memory/CPU configuration.
