From a07405b7802691d29ab3b23bdc76ee6d006aad0b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Justin TerAvest Date: Sun, 10 Jul 2011 22:09:19 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] cfq: Remove special treatment for metadata rqs. There is no consistency among filesystems from what bios (or requests) are marked as being metadata. It's interesting to expose this in traces, but we shouldn't schedule the requests differently based on whether or not they're marked as being metadata.
