Currently we use separate sbitmap pairs and active_queues atomic_t for shared sbitmap support. However a full sets of static requests are used per HW queue, which is quite wasteful, considering that the total number of requests usable at any given time across all HW queues is limited by the shared sbitmap depth. As such, it is considerably more memory efficient in the case of shared sbitmap to allocate a set of static rqs per tag set or request queue, and not per HW queue. So replace the sbitmap pairs and active_queues atomic_t with a shared tags per tagset and request queue, which will hold a set of shared static rqs. Since there is now no valid HW queue index to be passed to the blk_mq_ops .init and .exit_request callbacks, pass an invalid index token. This changes the semantics of the APIs, such that the callback would need to validate the HW queue index before using it. Currently no user of shared sbitmap actually uses the HW queue index (as would be expected).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
