Hey, people,
don't you annoy yourselves all the time?
The BFQ patches provide a useful alternative for the code called 
"legacy" by you, while you're not maintaining the base any more, 
and just about to invent something new, again. ?!
When blk-mq has no scheduler -> work on it. When you want to 
develop I/O scheduler APIs -> work on it. Maybe you even want to 
collaborate with someone, who already has a working solution, 
meaning Paolo Valente +team, with BFQ. Too much for you?

I don't see any progress with your blk-mq work since years, while 
Paolo Valente continuously improves and maintains the BFQ.

I need to be a little impolite on here: Several blk maintainers 
behave as masters of the universe, just to keep up their own 
view/ claim. That's a real shame for all Linux.

Best regards,
Manuel Krause
