For interrupt coalescing, cv_timedwait_hires() uses a 100us slack/delta for calls to schedule_hrtimeout_range(). This 100us slack can be costly for small writes. This change improves small write performance by passing resolution `res` parameter to schedule_hrtimeout_range() to be used as delta/slack. A new tunable `spl_schedule_hrtimeout_slack_us` is added to preserve old behavior when desired. Performance observations on 8K recordsize filesystem: - 8K random writes at 1-64 threads, up to 60% improvement for one thread and smaller gains as thread count increases. At >64 threads, 2-5% decrease in performance was observed. - 8K sequential writes, similar 60% improvement for one thread and leveling out around 64 threads. At >64 threads, 5-10% decrease in performance was observed. - 128K sequential write sees 1-5 for the 128K. No observed regression at high thread count. Testing done on Ubuntu 18.04 with 4.15 kernel, 8vCPUs and SSD storage on VMware ESX.
