Subject: BUG when trying to use deadline iosched in 3.16-rc1

Hi,

While testing 3.16-rc1, I got this error:

Jun 21 11:19:03 brouette kernel: elevator: type deadline not found
Jun 21 11:19:03 brouette kernel: elevator: switch to deadline

My startup scripts do this:

    echo "noop" > /sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler
    echo "deadline" > /sys/block/sdb/queue/scheduler
    echo "noop" > /sys/block/sdc/queue/scheduler
    echo "deadline" > /sys/block/sdd/queue/scheduler

And the relevant part of my .config:

CONFIG_IOSCHED_NOOP=y
CONFIG_IOSCHED_DEADLINE=m
CONFIG_IOSCHED_CFQ=y
CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED=y
CONFIG_DEFAULT_IOSCHED="cfq"


Maybe related to b5097e956a ?

No problem with 3.15.

Thanks,
