blk-mq: fix potential hang if rolling wakeup depth is too high
We currently divide the queue depth by 4 as our batch wakeup count, but we split the wakeups over BT_WAIT_QUEUES number of wait queues. This defaults to 8. If the product of the resulting batch wake count and BT_WAIT_QUEUES is higher than the device queue depth, we can get into a situation where a task goes to sleep waiting for a request, but never gets woken up. Reported-by: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@acm.org> Fixes: 4bb659b156996 Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
