(replying to my own email)

Please take a look at the two new tests in
https://github.com/osandov/blktests/pull/87. The results of that test for
kernel v5.13 show that enabling an I/O scheduler speeds up the I/O workload
except when using BFQ (times are in centiseconds):

# cat /home/bart/software/blktests/results/nodev/block/032.full
bfq: 465 vs 452: pass
kyber: 243 vs 452: pass
mq-deadline: 230 vs 452: pass

The results for kernel v5.16 shows that enabling an I/O scheduler slows down
the I/O workload up to 2.2x:

# cat /home/bart/software/blktests/results/nodev/block/032.full
bfq: 920 vs 419: fail
kyber: 732 vs 419: fail
mq-deadline: 751 vs 419: fail

In other words, this is not an mq-deadline issue.

Bart.
