Subject: [PATCH] Fix a CFQ crash in "for-2.6.33" branch of block tree
Hi Jens,
I think my previous patch introduced a bug which can lead to CFQ hitting
BUG_ON().
The offending commit in for-2.6.33 branch is.
commit 7667aa0630407bc07dc38dcc79d29cc0a65553c1

I think I have hit following BUG_ON() in cfq_dispatch_request().
BUG_ON(RB_EMPTY_ROOT(&cfqq->sort_list));
Please find attached the patch to fix it. I have done some stress testing
with it and have not seen it happening again.
o We should wait on a queue even after slice expiry only if it is empty. If
queue is not empty then continue to expire it.
o If we decide to keep the queue then make cfqq=NULL. Otherwise select_queue()
will return a valid cfqq and cfq_dispatch_request() can hit following
BUG_ON().
BUG_ON(RB_EMPTY_ROOT(&cfqq->sort_list))
