I don't really have any to give.  Task collector mode was something
Luben implemented but never really made use of, so what's in the kernel
has never really been tested (or, indeed, implemented).

Personally, it's never been clear to me what the advantage of a task
collector mode over what the kernel currently does inside the block
layer actually is.

If you have any thoughts or requirements on this, posting them to the
list would be helpful since I don't think anyone else has really thought
about this, either.

A summary of the differences between the new and old mvsas driver would
be really helpful to me as well, please.

James
