I found the following statement multiple times in this patch:
WARN_ON_ONCE(q->alloc_srcu != !!(q->tag_set->flags & BLK_MQ_F_BLOCKING));
Does this mean that the new q->alloc_srcu member variable can be left out
and that it can be replaced with the following test?
q->tag_set->flags & BLK_MQ_F_BLOCKING
Please note that I'm not concerned about the memory occupied by this
variable but only about avoiding redundancy.
If this variable is retained it probably should be renamed, e.g. "has_srcu"
instead of "alloc_srcu".
Thanks,
Bart.
