Subject[PATCH 0/5] blk plug fixes
Date
These are some block plug related patches. The first 3 are independent and can
apply separately.

For the multiple queue case, I only handled !BLK_MQ_F_DEFER_ISSUE case. The
DEFER_ISSUE is really confusing, I'm not sure what's the correct behavior.

BTW, calling blk_mq_merge_queue_io is confusing too to me. The request will be
dispatched immediately or offload to a workqueue to dispatch. In either case,
the request will be dispatched soon. There is a tiny window there are requests
in the queue and requests can be merged. I thought we can delete the code with
plug merge. And if out of order request merge is important, we really should
add a ELEVATOR_INSERT_SORT_MERGE like mechanism. This makes me more confusing
about BLK_MQ_F_DEFER_ISSUE too.

Thanks,
Shaohua
