If there is millions of discard entries cached in rb tree, each sanity check of it can cause very long latency as held cmd_lock blocking other lock grabbers. In other aspect, we have enabled the check very long time, as we see, there is no such inconsistent condition caused by bugs. But still we do not choose to kill it directly, instead, adding an flag to disable the check now, if there is related code change, we can reuse it to detect bugs.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
