Subject: [PATCH 2/2] block, bfq: present a double cgroups interface
When bfq was merged into mainline, there were two I/O schedulers that
implemented the proportional-share policy: bfq for blk-mq and cfq for
legacy blk. bfq's interface files in the blkio/io controller have the
same names as cfq. But the cgroups interface doesn't allow two
entities to use the same name for their files, so for bfq we had to
prepend the "bfq" prefix to each of its files. However no legacy code
uses these modified file names. This naming also causes confusion, as,
e.g., in [1].
Now cfq has gone with legacy blk, so there is no need any longer for
these prefixes in (the never used) bfq names. Yet some people may have
started to use the current bfq interface. So, as suggested by Tejun
Heo [2], make bfq present a double interface, one with the file names
prepended with the "bfq" prefix, and the other one with no prefix.
