Sorry, I forgot I had a few other patches in my branch that touch
mempool/biosets code.
Also, after thinking about it more and looking at the relevant code, I'm pretty
sure we don't need rescuer threads for block devices that just split bios - i.e.
most of them, so I changed my patch to do that.
Tested it by ripping out the current->bio_list checks/workarounds from the
bcache code, appears to work:
-- >8 --
Subject: [PATCH] block: Make rescuer threads per request_queue, not per bioset
Also, trigger rescuing whenever with bios on current->bio_list, instead
of only when we block in bio_alloc_bioset(). This is more correct, and
should result in fewer rescuer threads.
XXX: The current->bio_list plugging needs to be unified with the
blk_plug mechanism.
