Hi, This patchset introduces flag of BLK_MQ_F_SCHED_USE_HW_TAG and allows to use hardware tag directly for IO scheduling if the queue's depth is big enough. In this way, we can avoid to allocate extra tags and request pool for IO schedule, and the schedule tag allocation/release can be saved in I/O submit path.
