Only functional test at this point.  I'm buliding NUMA awareness to
workqueue and planning on doing comparison of before-wq, after-wq,
after-wq-with-NUMA-awareness.  I don't expect any tangible difference
between before-wq and after-wq tho.  It would be great if someone can
recommend me a test scenario which can emphasize CPU overhead of
writeback tasks.  Any ideas?

Thanks.
