Please choose a better name for that argument, e.q. "mq". To me the name 
"mq_ops"
means "a pointer to a data structure with operation function pointers".

How about changing the above into:

+       if (e && e->uses_mq != mq) {
+               pr_err("ERROR: attempt to configure %s as I/O scheduler for a 
%s queue\n",
+                      name, mq ? "blk-mq" : "legacy");
+               e = NULL;
+       }

Thanks,

Bart.
