[RFC PATCH 3/5] cfq-iosched: reimplement priorities using different service trees

From: Corrado Zoccolo
Date: Mon Oct 19 2009 - 16:21:38 EST


We use different service trees for different priority classes.
This allows a simplification in the service tree insertion code, that no
longer has to consider priority while walking the tree.
