This was introduced in 5.4 or 5.0 or somewhere between?
The time based scheduling was introduced in 5.0.
Honestly even the quantum based scheduling in 4.0 had performance
problems with kernel based threads, just less obvious.
All kernel based IO should run under the same IO context, it doesn't
make sense to have the kernel competing against itself. The only
exception to that would be a RT kernel that might have a RT context
that preempts even the kernel context.
