I'm not sure I got your point, so, to help you help me quickly, I'll
repeat what I expect the code you highlight to do:
- sync reads must have no limitation, and the lines
if (op_is_sync(op) && !op_is_write(op))
return;
make sure they don't
- sync writes must be limited, and the code you pasted above computes
those limits
- for sync writes, for which op_is_sync(op) is true (but the condition
"op_is_sync(op) && !op_is_write(op)" is false), the line:
bfqd->word_depths[!!bfqd->wr_busy_queues][op_is_sync(op)];
becomes
bfqd->word_depths[!!bfqd->wr_busy_queues][1];
e yields the right limit for sync writes, depending on bfqd->wr_busy_queues.
Where is the bug?

Paolo
