[PATCH 03/03] block: add cgroups, kconfig and build bits for BFQ

From: Fabio Checconi
Date: Tue Nov 11 2008 - 07:56:31 EST


Add a Kconfig option and do the related Makefile changes to compile
the BFQ I/O scheduler. Also let the cgroups subsystem know about the
BFQ I/O controller.

+ ---help---
+ The BFQ I/O scheduler tries to distribute bandwidth among
+ all processes in the system, according to their weights,
+ which can be set using task ioprio values. It aims at giving
+ deterministic guarantees on the distribution of the service
+ provided. If compiled built-in (saying Y here), BFQ can
