Subject: block/loop: allow request merge for directio mode
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=40326d8a33d5b70039849d233975b63c733d94a2;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

block/loop: allow request merge for directio mode

Currently loop disables merge. While it makes sense for buffer IO mode,
directio mode can benefit from request merge. Without merge, loop could
send small size IO to underlayer disk and harm performance.
