[PATCH RFC] blk-mq: no need to modify bt->wake_index if someone has updated it

From: Wenbo Wang
Date: Fri Jan 29 2016 - 01:13:54 EST


If someone else has found active waitqueue and updated
bt->wake_index, do not modify it again. This saves an
atomic read.

Not seeing too much benifit from this patch, but it makes the logic here more clear
