      cfq-iosched: fix next_rq computation · cf7c25cf
      Corrado Zoccolo authored
      Cfq has a bug in computation of next_rq, that affects transition
      between multiple sequential request streams in a single queue
      (e.g.: two sequential buffered writers of the same priority),
      causing the alternation between the two streams for a transient period.

      The fix makes sure that the next_rq is computed from the last
      dispatched request, and not affected by merging.
