  virtio-blk: base queue-depth on virtqueue ringsize or module param (2014-03-24
12:20:18 +1030)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Nothing exciting: virtio-blk users might see a bit of a boost from the
doubling of the default queue length though.

Cheers,
Rusty.

Hello Rusty,

the subject patch was part of your original patch series on January 
15th. When is that planned to go upstream?

And if I introduce it now, it has no users.  So if you have patches on
top of it, please send them to me and I'll queue them all together.

Thanks,
Rusty.
