cfq-iosched: Implement tunable group_idle
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
o Implement a new tunable group_idle, which allows idling on the group
  instead of a cfq queue. Hence one can set slice_idle = 0 and not idle
  on the individual queues but idle on the group. This way on fast storage
  we can get fairness between groups at the same time overall throughput
  improves.
