[PATCH 1/2] blkcg: Make bfq disable iocost when enabled

From: Paolo Valente
Date: Tue Sep 17 2019 - 12:52:15 EST


From: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx>

Both iocost and bfq implement weight based IO control. Currently, bfq
is using io.bfq prefix but wants to drop the bfq part. To avoid
interface conflict, make bfq disable iocost when it's selected as the
IO scheduler for any block device on the system. iocost is only
re-enabled when bfq is built as a module and unloaded.
