Yes, I did ask for the patch to be kept since it does not make things worse for the SMR/mq case (still have a potential dispatch deadlock) but does cleanup the code in the legacy/sq case. Since it looks like the jiffies_at_alloc and retry counter initialization fixes are progressing, we hopefully should be able to get Bart's pacth back in soon (this week ?) and remove the mq dispatch deadlock.
