From: Hongyu Jin <hongyu.jin@xxxxxxxxxx> Since dm-crypt queues writes to a different kernel thread (workqueue), the bios will dispatch from tasks with different io_context->ioprio settings and blkcg than the submitting task, thus giving incorrect ioprio to the io scheduler. Get the original IO priority setting via struct dm_crypt_io::base_bio and set this priority in the bio for write.
