Some devices have different queue limits depending on the type of IO. A classic case is SATA NCQ, where some commands can queue, but others cannot. If we have NCQ commands inflight and encounter a non-queueable command, the driver returns busy. Currently we attempt to dispatch more from the scheduler, if we were able to queue some commands. But for the case where we ended up stopping due to BUSY, we should not attempt to retrieve more from the scheduler. If we do, we can get into a situation where we attempt to queue a non-queueable command, get BUSY, then successfully retrieve more commands from that scheduler and queue those. This can repeat forever, starving the non-queuable command indefinitely. Fix this by NOT attempting to pull more commands from the scheduler, if we get a BUSY return. This should also be more optimal in terms of letting requests stay in the scheduler for as long as possible, if we get a BUSY due to the regular out-of-tags condition.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
