Add DM_ENDIO_DELAY_REQUEUE to allow request-based multipath's multipath_end_io() to instruct dm-rq.c:dm_done() to delay a requeue. This is beneficial to do if BLK_STS_RESOURCE is returned from the target (because target is busy). Relative to blk-mq: kick the hw queues via blk_mq_requeue_work(), indirectly from dm-rq.c:__dm_mq_kick_requeue_list(), after a delay. For old .request_fn: use blk_delay_queue(). bio-based multipath doesn't have feature parity with request-based for retryable error requeues; that is something that'll need fixing in the future.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
