[PATCH BUGFIX] attempt to fix wrong scheduler selection

From: Paolo Valente <hidden>
Date: 2017-02-13 21:01:23
Also in: lkml

Hi,
if, at boot, a legacy I/O scheduler is chosen for a device using
blk-mq, or, viceversa, a blk-mq scheduler is chosen for a device using
blk, then that scheduler is set and initialized without any check,
driving the system into an inconsistent state.

The purpose of this message is, first, to report this issue, and,
second, to propose a possible fix in case you do consider this as a
bug.

Thanks,
Paolo
