I did some benchmark:
	DOM0: 1 VCPU, 4G of RAM based on 4.3-rc1 without this series
	GUEST: 4 VPUs, 4G of RAM, second disk associate to a nullbk device

I used fio with the following options

42sh> fio --name=test --ioengine=libaio --rw=read --numjobs=8 \
--iodepth=32 --time_based=1 --runtime=30 --bs=4KB \
--filename=/dev/xvdb--direct=1 --group_reporting=1 --iodepth_batch=16

The guest is also based on 4.3-rc1 with and without the series.

The overhead with my series is about 0.56%.
