[PATCH] cfq-iosched: fix bug in timer handling for the idle class
There's a small window from when the timer is entered and we grab the queue lock, where cfq_set_active_queue() could be rearming the timer for us. Seen in the wild on a 12-way ppc box. Fix this by just using mod_timer(), which will do the right thing for us. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
