[PATCH] 02/05: update ioscheds to use generic dispatch queue
This patch updates all four ioscheds to use generic dispatch queue. There's one behavior change in as-iosched. * In as-iosched, when force dispatching (ELEVATOR_INSERT_BACK), batch_data_dir is reset to REQ_SYNC and changed_batch and new_batch are cleared to zero. This prevernts AS from doing incorrect update_write_batch after the forced dispatched requests are finished. * In cfq-iosched, cfqd->rq_in_driver currently counts the number of activated (removed) requests to determine whether queue-kicking is needed and cfq_max_depth has been reached. With generic dispatch queue, I think counting the number of dispatched requests would be more appropriate. * cfq_max_depth can be lowered to 1 again. Original from Tejun Heo, modified version applied. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
