So what you wrote above does not contradict what I wrote in my e-mail, namely that I suspect that a regression was introduced by the patches in the series "blk-mq: improve DM's blk-mq IO merging via blk_insert_cloned_request feedback". These changes namely went in through the block tree and not through the dm tree. Additionally, these changes were not present in the block-scsi-for-next branch I sent you on Monday. Bart.
