[PATCH 1/2] null_blk: fix handling big requests with small mbps limit

From: Konstantin Khlebnikov
Date: Mon Jul 08 2019 - 11:37:59 EST


Small mbps limit actually limits size of request which could be handled,
because 'cur_bytes' never might be bigger than bandwidth limit over 20ms.
For example with mbps=4 device cannot handle requests bigger than 81 KiB.

This patch allows to start request bigger than 'cur_bytes' but stops queue
if 'cur_bytes' is negative. Bandwidth timer takes this into account.

Fixes: eff2c4f10873 ("nullb: bandwidth control")
