Linux 4.14 compat: blk_queue_stackable()
The blk_queue_stackable() function was replaced in the 4.14 kernel by queue_is_rq_based(), commit torvalds/linux@5fdee212. This change resulted in the default elevator being used which can negatively impact performance. Rather than adding additional compatibility code to detect the new interface unconditionally attempt to set the elevator. Since we expect this to fail for block devices without an elevator the error message has been moved in to zfs_dbgmsg(). Finally, it was observed that the elevator_change() was removed from the 4.12 kernel, commit torvalds/linux@c033269. Update the comment to clearly specify which are expected to export the elevator_change() symbol. Reviewed-by: Matthew Ahrens <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: Tony Hutter <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #7645
