If active queue hasn't enough requests and idle window opens, cfq will not
dispatch sufficient requests to hardware. In such situation, current code
will zero hw_tag. But this is because cfq doesn't dispatch enough requests
instead of hardware queue doesn't work. Don't zero hw_tag in such case.

The flag used to indicate that a cfqq was allowed to jump ahead in the
scheduling order due to submitting a request close to the queue that
just executed.  Since closely cooperating queues are now merged, the flag
holds little meaning.  Change it to indicate that multiple queues were
merged.  This will later be used to allow the breaking up of merged queues
when they are no longer cooperating.

When cooperating cfq_queues are detected currently, they are allowed to
skip ahead in the scheduling order.  It is much more efficient to
automatically share the cfq_queue data structure between cooperating processes.

cfq_queue from 1:1 to 1:N.  So, calculate the seekiness of a process

It makes sense to do IOWAIT when someone is blocked
due to IO throttle, as suggested by Kame and Peter.

There is an old comment for not doing IOWAIT on throttle,
however it has been mismatching the code for a long time.

If we stop accounting IOWAIT for 2.6.32, it could be an
undesirable behavior change. So restore the io_schedule.

If the average think time is larger than the remaining time slice
for any given queue, don't allow it to idle. A succesful idle also
means that we need to dispatch and complete a request, so if we don't
even have time left for the idle process, we would overrun the slice
in any case.

We should subtract the slice residual from the rb tree key, since
a negative residual count indicates that the cfqq overran its slice
the last time. Hence we want to add the overrun time, to position
it a bit further away in the service tree.

Commit a9327cac added seperate read
and write statistics of in_flight requests. And exported the number
of read and write requests in progress seperately through sysfs.

But  Corrado Zoccolo <czoccolo@gmail.com> reported getting strange
output from "iostat -kx 2". Global values for service time and
utilization were garbage. For interval values, utilization was always
100%, and service time is higher than normal.

So this was reverted by commit 0f78ab98

The problem was in part_round_stats_single(), I missed the following:
        if (now == part->stamp)
                return;

-       if (part->in_flight) {
+       if (part_in_flight(part)) {
                __part_stat_add(cpu, part, time_in_queue,
                                part_in_flight(part) * (now - part->stamp));
                __part_stat_add(cpu, part, io_ticks, (now - part->stamp));

With this chunk included, the reported regression gets fixed.
