This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves
the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the
results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-
bionic' to 'verification-done-bionic'. If the problem still exists,
change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-failed-
bionic'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Title:
  [Bionic] Disk IO hangs when using BFQ as io scheduler

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in linux source package in Bionic:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  When BFQ is used, disk IO will hang some seconds after boot. This was
  also reported in some public MLs [1][2]. The fix is already in
  mainline, but it's not available in 4.15.

  == SRU Justification ==

  Impact:
  Disk IO hangs several seconds after booting with a bionic Ubuntu kernel

  Fix:
  Three patches are cherry-picked for SRU. "block, bfq: add requeue-request 
hook" is the fix, while the other two are cleanups and make the whole fixes 
clean cherry-picks.

  Testcase:
  Boot the kernel with BFQ as IO scheduler.

  Risk of Regression:
  Clean cherry-picks from upstream so the risk should be fairly low.
