Santosh,

I don't really understand the mechanism you use from user/kernel 
regarding the registration.

But I saw you use wait_event and wait for completing the 
FRWR/INVALIDATION. For sure this is not optimal.

But can't really say what is the bottleneck in your case.

Can you share the numbers you get for FMR/FRWR benchmarks ?
