This looks good in general: Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> Minor nitpicks below: > const bool has_sched_dispatch = e && e->type->ops.mq.dispatch_request; This is now only tested once, so you can remove the local variable for it. > + /* > + * We may clear DISPATCH_BUSY just after it > + * is set from another context, the only cost > + * is that one request is dequeued a bit early, > + * we can survive that.
