Subject[PATCH BUGFIX 0/2] bfq: fix unbalanced decrements causing loss of throughput
Date
Hi Jens,
the first patch in this series fixes an error in the decrementing of
the counter of the number of groups with pending I/O. This wrong
decrement caused loss of throughput or, less likely, of control on
I/O. The second patch is a fix of some wrong comments, which somehow
contributed to making the above bug more difficult to find.

Thanks,
Paolo
