Sure, fixed.

Indeed. Fixed.

That's because there are /etc/multipath.conf in the wild right now,
created with non rq capable kernels. rr_min_io meant something then. It
seems not fair to change the meaning of that tunable upon upgrade.
People do cut-and-paste from old docs (corp or googled) and from peers
systems ... this approach minimize the risk of killing the perf by
accident. And I don't see downsides.

commit 035ea75c47302fc95d5742e854971f951419ec81

    Fix Malahal Naineni commit 2b68b83 review highlights
    
    1/ use local stack allocation in dm_drv_get_rq() and dm_drv_prereq()
    
    2/ don't pass argument to dm_drv_prereq() as it's dm-multipath
specific
    
    Also rename dm_drvprereq() to dm_drv_prereq() and dm_libprereq() to
    dm_lib_prereq() for consistency with dm_drv_get_rq() naming.
