Sorry about that. Were these 3 the only tests you saw to be failing,
or there were more?

I did test "quick" group of xfstests & ltp/fsx tests with the posted
version. And had tested a full suite of xfstests with one of my previous 
version.
I guess I was comparing against 1K blocksize without dioread_nolock.
But as I think more about it, I may need to compare against vanilla
kernel with 1K blocksize even without dioread_nolock. Since there may
be some changes in blocksize < pagesize path with this patch.


Also I see these tests(generic/273 & generic/476) are not part
of quick group. Let me check more about these failing tests at my end.

Thanks for your inputs.
