Since commit c5089591c3ba ("block, bfq: detect wakers and
unconditionally inject their I/O"), when the in-service bfq_queue, say
Q, is temporarily empty, BFQ checks whether there are I/O requests to
inject (also) from the waker bfq_queue for Q. To this goal, the value
pointed by bfqq->waker_bfqq->next_rq must be controlled. However, the
current implementation mistakenly looks at bfqq->next_rq, which
instead points to the next request of the currently served queue.
This mistake evidently causes losses of throughput in scenarios with
waker bfq_queues.
This commit corrects this mistake.

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.
