Hi YunLei

Interesting...
How to prove the page isn't been locked by storage block layer which
doesn't finish the related bio?

I suffer that case before, but then I solve it by seting a timer to
break my mmc driver while missing some important interrupts(chip
problem) for data-transfer to finish the io queue by mmcqd.

Another thing,
why making 5HZ for timeout? why not 10HZ ,15HZ...
io_schedule_timeout(5*HZ);
