Test results with the binary kernel package show the same symptoms, I/Os 
getting delayed longer than 10 minutes. It seems that those three patches 
together cause a regression of the "cfq-iosched: fix the delay of cfq_group's 
vdisktime under iops mode" patch.

So, in summary, with *only* the patch:

5be6b75610cefd1e21b98a218211922c2feb6e08  "cfq-iosched: fix the delay of 
cfq_group's vdisktime under
iops mode"

I see some improvement of the I/Os delays, although the delays are still
too long. But by adding these two patches:

4d608baac5f4e72b033a122b2d6d9499532c3afc  "block: Initialize cfqq->ioprio_class 
in cfq_get_queue()"
142bbdfccc8b3e9f7342f2ce8422e76a3b45beae  "cfq: Disable writeback throttling by 
default"

I see a regression of the delays back to what I was seeing without any
patches.
