Yes, sure. For this one, I Cc'ed Jens Axboe in part because although I believe that it is correct to use __blk_run_queue rather than to call the request handler directly, I am going on old information. I'm not entirely sure what the user impact is when the request hander is called directly, other than perhaps a slight performance hit. But I'd like to do the right thing. Jens Axboe, if you have a comment about correctness or user impact, I'd like to include that information in the changelog for this commit. Or if the change doesn't look right to you, I'd like to know that.
