>From a7782fa4cee73a0581eded978eacf52cb0db1ec7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Tue, 17 Dec 2013 23:47:41 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] block: Stop abusing rq->csd.list in blk-softirq Abusing rq->csd.list for a list of requests to complete is rather ugly. We use rq->queuelist instead which is much cleaner. It is safe because queuelist is used by the block layer only for requests waiting to be submitted to a device. Thus it is unused when irq reports the request IO is finished.
