One other note, it seems like this patch set has broken the write
barrier support - is that a side effect of enabling NCQ still?
I see messages that claim flush barriers are enabled:
[root@c001n01 root]# mount -o
barrier=flush,rw,noatime,nodiratime,data=ordered,notail /dev/sda10 /mnt/1

But when I test with my synchronous write load, I am going at 6 times
the normal rate (i.e., the rate I see with barriers disabled) ;-)
