From 4a0b75c7d02c2bd46ed227d4ba5941ba8a0aba5d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shaohua Li Date: Fri, 16 Dec 2011 14:00:22 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] block, cfq: fix empty queue crash caused by request merge All requests of a queue could be merged to other requests of other queue. Such queue will not have request in it, but it's in service tree. This will cause kernel oops. I encounter a BUG_ON() in cfq_dispatch_request() with next patch, but the issue should exist without the patch.
