Hello Paolo,

Is the git tree that is available at https://github.com/Algodev-github/bfq-mq
appropriate for testing BFQ? If I merge that tree with v4.11-rc6 and if I run
the srp-test software against that tree as follows:

    ./run_tests -e bfq-mq -t 02-mq

then the following appears on the console:
