Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Deadline iosched: Fix batching algorithm

Hi Jens,

The following patches correct some issues with the deadline I/O
scheduler and its batching algorithm.

Patch 1 is a simple function factorisation.
Patch 2 fixes a missing batch count reset, making the behaviour
  closer to that implied by the documentation.
Patch 3 changes batch start points to resolve a disparity in
  latency and bandwidth between high- and low-sector requests.

Thanks,
-- Aaron
