This needs documentation in the form of: /* * XXX: blk-mq might not map all our hw contexts but this is a must for * us for fabric connects. So until we can fix blk-mq we check that. */I think the right thing to do is to have a member of actually mapped queues in the block layer, and I also don't think we need the XXX comment as there are valid reasons for not mapping all queues.
I think it is a rare case that we need all hw contexts mapped. Seems unnecessary to add a new field to "struct request_queue" for the rare case.
