Overly long line here. And it would be much more readable if you used
a good old if/else.

Please use an allocating xarray instead of an IDA plus list.

Please capitalize multi-line comments.

Code comments are not the place to explain history. PLease explain the
current situation.

Please don't use the grab all queue_lock for new code. It badly needs
to be split and documented, and new code is the best place to start
that.

Also with all the new code please add a new config option that is
selected by all rq-pos implementations so that blk-rq-qos.c only gets
built when actually needed.

Another overly long line. And in doubt split this into two helpers
so that you cna use lockdep_assert_held instead of doing the incorrect
asserts.
