If blk_get_request() returns ENODEV then multipath_clone_and_map() causes a request to be requeued immediately. This can cause a kworker thread to spend 100% of the CPU time of a single core in __blk_mq_run_hw_queue() and also can cause device removal to never finish. Avoid this by only requeuing after a delay if blk_get_request() fails. Additionally, reduce the requeue delay.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
