From: Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@xxxxxxxxxx> The read verifier pool deals with two different thread counts -- there's the submitter thread count that enables us to perform per-thread verify request aggregation, and then there's the io thread pool count which is the maximum number of IO requests we want to send to the disk at any given time. The io thread pool count should be derived from disk_heads() but instead we bungle it by measuring and modifying(!) the nproc global variable. Fix the derivation to use global variables correctly.
