Add a periodic cleanup function to remove old persistent grants which
are no longer in use on the backend side. This avoids starvation in
case there are lots of persistent grants for a device which no longer
is involved in I/O business.

Does it make sense to provide a module parameter to rune the schedule
of the cleanup routine?

Is it really necessary to have the blkfront_work_active boolean? What
happens if you queue the same delayed work more than once?

Thanks, Roger.

I don't think this is something anyone would like to tune.

In case you think it should be tunable I can add a parameter, of course.

In case there is already work queued later calls of
schedule_delayed_work() will be ignored.

So yes, I can drop the global boolean (I still need a local flag in
blkfront_delay_work() for controlling the need to call
schedule_delayed_work() again).

We can always add it later if required. I'm fine as-is now.

Can't you just call schedule_delayed_work if info->feature_persistent
is set, even if that means calling it multiple times if multiple
blkfront instances are using persistent grants?

Thanks, Roger.

I don't like that. With mq we have a high chance for multiple instances
to use persistent grants and a local bool is much cheaper than unneeded
calls of schedule_delayed_work().
