I just tried to run LKP and xfstests, firstly failed to run LKP on my server
which seems to miss some dependencies. Then I ran xfstests successfully.
But xfstests generic/704 always pass and no WARN in dmesg. (I don't know why,
maybe my server settings are some different from the test robot.)
So I try to reproduce it manually. Steps:
```
echo mq-deadline > /sys/block/sdb/queue/scheduler
mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb
mount /dev/sdb /fs/sdb
cd /fs/sdb
stress-ng --symlink 4 --timeout 60
echo none > /sys/block/sdb/queue/scheduler
```
This way the WARNING in mq-deadline can be reproduced easily.
Then retest with the diff, mq-deadline WARNING still happened... So there
are still other requests which have RQF_USE_SCHED flag completed without
being inserted into elevator.
Will use some tracing and look again.
Thanks.
