cfq-iosched: development update
- Implement logic for detecting cooperating processes, so we choose the best available queue whenever possible. - Improve residual slice time accounting. - Remove dead code: we no longer see async requests coming in on sync queues. That part was removed a long time ago. That means that we can also remove the difference between cfq_cfqq_sync() and cfq_cfqq_class_sync(), they are now indentical. And we can kill the on_dispatch array, just make it a counter. - Allow a process to go into the current list, if it hasn't been serviced in this scheduler tick yet. Possible future improvements including caching the cfqq lookup in cfq_close_cooperator(), so we don't have to look it up twice. cfq_get_best_queue() should just use that last decision instead of doing it again.
