Consider, on one side, a bfq_queue Q that remains empty while in service, and, on the other side, the pending I/O of bfq_queues that, according to their timestamps, have to be served after Q. If an uncontrolled amount of I/O from the latter bfq_queues were dispatched while Q is waiting for its new I/O to arrive, then Q's bandwidth guarantees would be violated. To prevent this, I/O dispatch is plugged until Q receives new I/O (except for a properly controlled amount of injected I/O). Unfortunately, preemption breaks I/O-dispatch plugging, for the following reason. Preemption is performed in two steps. First, Q is expired and re-scheduled. Second, the new bfq_queue to serve is chosen. The first step is needed by the second, as the second can be performed only after Q's timestamps have been properly updated (done in the expiration step), and Q has been re-queued for service. This dependency is a consequence of the way how BFQ's scheduling algorithm is currently implemented. But Q is not re-scheduled at all in the first step, because Q is empty. As a consequence, an uncontrolled amount of I/O may be dispatched until Q becomes non empty again. This breaks Q's service guarantees. This commit addresses this issue by re-scheduling Q even if it is empty. This in turn breaks the assumption that all scheduled queues are non empty. Then a few extra checks are now needed.

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.
