[PATCH V9 1/4] blk-mq: insert to hctx dispatch list when bypass_insert is true

From: Jianchao Wang
Date: Wed Dec 05 2018 - 02:44:48 EST


We don't allow direct dispatch of anything but regular reads/writes
and insert all of non-read-write requests. However, this is not
correct for 'bypass_insert == true' case where inserting is ignored
and BLK_STS_RESOURCE is returned. The caller will fail forever.

Fix it with inserting the non-read-write request to hctx dispatch
list to avoid to involve merge and io scheduler when bypass_insert
is true.
