From: Chunguang Xu <redacted> The IO depth of queues belong to CLASS_IDLE is limited to 1, so that it can avoid introducing a larger tail latency under a device with a larger IO depth. Although limiting the IO depth may reduce the performance of idle_class, it is generally not a big problem, because idle_class usually does not have strict performance requirements.
