Currently individual bios are deferred to the worker thread if they cannot be processed immediately (eg, a block is in the process of being moved to the fast device). This patch passes whole cells across to the worker. This saves reaquiring the cell, and also collects bios destined for the same block together, which allows them to be mapped with a single look up to the policy. This reduces the overhead of using dm-cache. Signed-off-by: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>
