core: allocate control structures using an own kmem_cache
Testing /dev/urandom versus zzero-0-1-data (the random device) shows this increases performance by 0.1 usecs per block. We are now just over 0.7 usecs per block on my development PC. This also introduces zio-core.c with generic stuff. We agree that zio-sys will become zio-sysfs over time. Signed-off-by:Alessandro Rubini <rubini@gnudd.com> Acked-by:
