Add and use the helper to initialize the common fields of the tag_set
such as blk_mq_ops, number of h/w queues, queue depth, command size,
numa_node, timeout, BLK_MQ_F_XXX flags, driver data. This initialization
is spread all over the block drivers. This avoids the code repetation of
the inialization code of the tag set in current block drivers and any
future ones.

That is an awful lot of arguments... I would be tempted to say pack all
these into a struct but then that would kind of negate this patchset goal.
Using a function with that many arguments will be error prone, and hard to
review... Not a fan.

No need for the extra whiteline.

I completely agree.

But there is also another problem going down this route. If/when we
realize that there is another parameter needed in the blk_mq_tag_set.
Today that's quite easy to add (assuming the parameter can be
optional), without changing the blk_mq_init_tag_set() interface.

Hi Chaitanya,

Please consider to drop the entire patch series. In addition to the 
disadvantages mentioned above I'd like to mention the following 
disadvantages:
* Replacing named member assignments with positional arguments in a
   function call makes code harder to read and harder to verify.
* This patch series makes tree-wide changes without improving the code
   in a substantial way.

Thanks,

Bart.
