+ * An io_cq (icq) is association between an io_context (ioc) and a
+ * request_queue (q). This is used by elevators which need to track
+ * information per ioc - q pair.
+ *
+ * Elevator can request use of icq by setting elevator_type->icq_size and
+ * ->icq_align. Both size and align must be larger than that of struct
+ * io_cq and elevator can use the tail area for private information. The
+ * recommended way to do this is defining a struct which contains io_cq as
+ * the first member followed by private members and using its size and
+ * align. For example,
+ *
+ * struct snail_io_cq {
+ * struct io_cq icq;
+ * int poke_snail;
+ * int feed_snail;
+ * };
+ *
+ * struct elevator_type snail_elv_type {
+ * .ops = { ... },
+ * .icq_size = sizeof(struct snail_io_cq),
+ * .icq_align = __alignof__(struct snail_io_cq),
+ * ...
+ * };
+ *
+ * If icq_size is set, block core will manage icq's. All requests will
+ * have its ->elv.icq field set before elevator_ops->elevator_set_req_fn()
+ * is called and be holding a reference to the associated io_context.
+ *
+ * Whenever a new icq is created, elevator_ops->elevator_init_icq_fn() is
+ * called and, on destruction, ->elevator_exit_icq_fn(). Both functions
+ * are called with both the associated io_context and queue locks held.
+ *
+ * Elevator is allowed to lookup icq using ioc_lookup_icq() while holding
+ * queue lock but the returned icq is valid only until the queue lock is
+ * released. Elevators can not and should not try to create or destroy
+ * icq's.
+ *
+ * As icq's are linked from both ioc and q, the locking rules are a bit
+ * complex.
+ *
+ * - ioc lock nests inside q lock.
+ *
+ * - ioc->icq_list and icq->ioc_node are protected by ioc lock.
+ * q->icq_list and icq->q_node by q lock.
+ *
+ * - ioc->icq_tree and ioc->icq_hint are protected by ioc lock, while icq
+ * itself is protected by q lock. However, both the indexes and icq
+ * itself are also RCU managed and lookup can be performed holding only
+ * the q lock.
+ *
+ * - icq's are not reference counted. They are destroyed when either the
+ * ioc or q goes away. Each request with icq set holds an extra
+ * reference to ioc to ensure it stays until the request is completed.
+ *
+ * - Linking and unlinking icq's are performed while holding both ioc and q
+ * locks. Due to the lock ordering, q exit is simple but ioc exit
+ * requires reverse-order double lock dance.
