Let me make it clear, once more - I don't want to maintain more hacks in mmc block layer code. This series add blkmq support, using a method (which may be considered as intermediate) via a new change in patch1 - but only for the new CQE path. That means the old legacy mmc block path is still there. So, for the reason stated above - no thanks! > >> >> Still, big changes is always nice to queue up early for a release >> cycle.

Yes, I want blkmq - and I believe I have explained why several times by now. Unfortunate, blkmq just doesn't appear, we have to work on it - together. > >> Moreover, I am not delaying CQE, but really want it to be merged asap! >> However, I am also having the role as a maintainer and the things that >> comes with it.

That is enough time to wait for "consensus". Normally it should be more than enough, on the other hand, it has turned out this was more complex than we first thought.
