Matias Bjorling 57053d8c5c null_blk: mem garbage on NUMA systems during init
For NUMA systems, initializing the blk-mq layer and using per node hctx.
We initialize submit queues to 1, while blk-mq nr_hw_queues is
initialized to the number of NUMA nodes.

This makes the null_init_hctx function overwrite memory outside of what
it allocated.  In my case it lead to writing garbage into struct
request_queue's mq_map.

Jens Axboe f2298c0403 null_blk: multi queue aware block test driver
A driver that simply completes IO it receives, it does no
transfers. Written to fascilitate testing of the blk-mq code.
It supports various module options to use either bio queueing,
rq queueing, or mq mode.
