Subject: [PATCH 5.1 037/122] Revert "MD: fix lock contention for flush bios"
From: NeilBrown <neilb@...e.com>
commit 4bc034d35377196c854236133b07730a777c4aba upstream.
This reverts commit 5a409b4f56d50b212334f338cb8465d65550cd85.
This patch has two problems.
1/ it make multiple calls to submit_bio() from inside a make_request_fn.
The bios thus submitted will be queued on current->bio_list and not
submitted immediately. As the bios are allocated from a mempool,
this can theoretically result in a deadlock - all the pool of requests
could be in various ->bio_list queues and a subsequent mempool_alloc
could block waiting for one of them to be released.
2/ It aims to handle a case when there are many concurrent flush requests.
It handles this by submitting many requests in parallel - all of which
are identical and so most of which do nothing useful.
It would be more efficient to just send one lower-level request, but
allow that to satisfy multiple upper-level requests.
Fixes: 5a409b4f56d5 ("MD: fix lock contention for flush bios")
