When the allocation process is scheduled back and the mapped hw queue is changed, fake one extra wake up on previous queue for compensating wake up miss, so other allocations on the previous queue won't be starved. This patch fixes one request allocation hang issue, which can be triggered easily in case of very low nr_request. The race is as follows: 1) 2 hw queues, nr_requests are 2, and wake_batch is one 2) there are 3 waiters on hw queue 0 3) two in-flight requests in hw queue 0 are completed, and only two waiters of 3 are waken up because of wake_batch, but both the two waiters can be scheduled to another CPU and cause to switch to hw queue 1 4) then the 3rd waiter will wait for ever, since no in-flight request is in hw queue 0 any more. 5) this patch fixes it by the fake wakeup when waiter is scheduled to another hw queue Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@redhat.com> Modified commit message to make it clearer, and make it apply on top of the 4.18 branch.
