Hello Jens,

Please note that patch 2/6 is a bug fix. The current implementation of
blk_mq_sched_restart_queues() only considers hardware queues associated with
the same request queue as the hardware queue that has been passed as an
argument. If a tag set is shared across request queues - as is the case for
SCSI - then all request queues that share a tag set with the hctx argument
must be considered.

Bart.
