Nilay Shroff 22f98de8fa block: unify elevator tags and type xarrays into struct elv_change_ctx 
[ Upstream commit 232143b605 ]

Currently, the nr_hw_queues update path manages two disjoint xarrays —
one for elevator tags and another for elevator type — both used during
elevator switching. Maintaining these two parallel structures for the
same purpose adds unnecessary complexity and potential for mismatched
state.

This patch unifies both xarrays into a single structure, struct
elv_change_ctx, which holds all per-queue elevator change context. A
single xarray, named elv_tbl, now maps each queue (q->id) in a tagset
to its corresponding elv_change_ctx entry, encapsulating the elevator
tags, type and name references.

This unification simplifies the code, improves maintainability, and
clarifies ownership of per-queue elevator state.

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 reStructuredText 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.
