That probably won't work either, but you can use io throttling on the
host too.

I wouldn't oppose a patch to add back the non-mq path, but as far as I
know nobody is working on it.  It's not hard and I can help if you need
guidance.

Adding I/O scheduler support to blk-mq has been promised for at least a
year now, but I'm not aware of which kernel release might have the work.
 It's not even been submitted to LKML, so I guess it's quite far away.

Thanks,

Paolo
