4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Luca Miccio <[email protected]> [ Upstream commit b5dc5d4d1f4ff9032eb6c21a3c571a1317dc9289 ] Similarly to CFQ, BFQ has its write-throttling heuristics, and it is better not to combine them with further write-throttling heuristics of a different nature. So this commit disables write-back throttling for a device if BFQ is used as I/O scheduler for that device.
