[PATCH 05/23] drbd: add lists to find oldest pending requests

From: Philipp Reisner
Date: Thu Jul 03 2014 - 04:50:33 EST


From: Lars Ellenberg <lars.ellenberg@xxxxxxxxxx>

Adding requests to per-device fifo lists as soon as possible after
allocating them leaves a simple list_first_entry_or_null() to find the
oldest request, regardless what it is still waiting for.
