Grr, no, disregard the disregard, it's just annoyingly variable, may
perform akin to 5.15 but most likely won't.  With bandaid, it _seems_
to be consistently on par with 5.15.

Bandaid likely just break the writeback bits all to pieces, but that's
ok, if breakage makes things work better, they need more breaking :)
