The &request_queue_t in question
DESCRIPTION
Linux uses plugging to build bigger requests queues before letting
the device have at them. If a queue is plugged, the I/O scheduler
is still adding and merging requests on the queue. Once the queue
gets unplugged, the request_fn defined for the queue is invoked and
transfers started.
