[PATCH] cfq-iosched: merging problem
Two issues:
- The final return 1 should be a return 0, otherwise comparing cfqq is
a noop.
- bio_sync() only checks the sync flag, while rq_is_sync() checks both
for READ and sync. The latter is what we want. Expand the bio check
to include reads, and relax the restriction to allow merging of async
io into sync requests.
In the future we want to clean up the SYNC logic, right now it means
both sync request (such as READ and O_DIRECT WRITE) and unplug-on-issue.
Leave that for later.
