Great.  Thanks for the feedback Alexander!

So the next step on my end is to enable -mq for ahci, and verify initial
correctness using QEMU/KVM hardware emulation.

Btw, I've been looking at enabling the SHT->cmd_size for struct
ata_queued_cmd descriptor pre-allocation, but AFAICT these descriptors
are already all pre-allocated by libata and obtained via ata_qc_new() ->
__ata_qc_from_tag() during ata_scsi_queuecmd().

So that said, with the struct request + struct scsi_cmnd pre-allocations
already provided by blk-mq -> scsi-mq code, all memory allocations
should have already been eliminated from I/O fast path.
