Adrian, again apologize for the delay.

I am reviewing the series now and my intent is to provide comments on
each change separately during the week.

However, a couple of overall thoughts:

*) Could you please post some fresh performance measurements, such we
can get some real proof on why CMDQ is worth to be merged? If not
increased throughput, perhaps we can show some decreased I/O requests
latency!?

**) I have spoken to Linus W offlist - and he is still working on the
blkmq port. Although we first need to continue with the
re-factorization of the mmc block/core code, to minimize the bad
impact of our big mmc claim host lock. We should expect a
re-submission of his series quite soonish. However, it's also likely
that we need yet another round of re-factoring, before we can complete
the port to blkmq.

***) The reason for bringing up **), is of course because I think
deploying CMDQ support would be better done on top of the blkmq
interface as it's better suited for these kind of device types. My
goal is to reach a better maintenance situation, using more modern mmc
block code. We have spoken about this before, however of course I also
don't want to delay the CMDQ series. Anyway, let's move forward and
see what path we end up taking.
