From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx>
The length of the prefetch queue is limited by a semaphore. To avoid
a ABBA deadlock, we only trywait on the semaphore so if we fail to
get it we can kick the IO queues before sleeping. Unfortunately,
the "need to sleep" detection is just a little wrong - it needs to
lok at errno, not err for the EAGAIN value.
Hence this queue throttling has not been working for a long time.
