Under heavy TCP load, we see 3% of CPU time spent on the mfence. As explained in [1], this barrier is only needed to preserve the ordering of writes to the doorbell register. Use writel() instead of __raw_writel() for the doorbell write to provide this ordering without the need for a full memory barrier. memory-barriers.txt guarantees MMIO writes using writel() appear to the device in the same order they were made. On strongly-ordered architectures like x86, writel() adds no overhead to __raw_writel(); both translate into a single store instruction. Removing the mb() avoids the costly mfence instruction.
