From: Filippo Muzzini <filippo.muzzini@xxxxxxxxxx> Since bfq_finish_request() is always called on the request 'next', after bfq_requests_merged() is finished, and bfq_finish_request() removes 'next' from its bfq_queue if needed, it isn't necessary to do such a removal in advance in bfq_merged_requests(). This commit removes such a useless 'next' removal.
