• 3fcfab16c   [PATCH] separate bdi congestion functions from queue congestion functions ... Browse Code »

  Separate out the concept of "queue congestion" from "backing-dev congestion".
  Congestion is a backing-dev concept, not a queue concept.

  The blk_* congestion functions are retained, as wrappers around the core
  backing-dev congestion functions.

  This proper layering is needed so that NFS can cleanly use the congestion
  functions, and so that CONFIG_BLOCK=n actually links.
