Paolo Valente 65d8a73745 Revert "Revert "block, bfq: honor already-setup queue merges""
[ Upstream commit 15729ff814 ]

A crash [1] happened to be triggered in conjunction with commit
2d52c58b9c ("block, bfq: honor already-setup queue merges"). The
latter was then reverted by commit ebc69e897e ("Revert "block, bfq:
honor already-setup queue merges""). Yet, the reverted commit was not
the one introducing the bug. In fact, it actually triggered a UAF
introduced by a different commit, and now fixed by commit d29bd41428
("block, bfq: reset last_bfqq_created on group change").

So, there is no point in keeping commit 2d52c58b9c ("block, bfq:
honor already-setup queue merges") out. This commit restores it.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
