My workload is a raid5 which had 16 disks. And used our filesystem to
write using direct-io mode.
I used the blktrace to find those message:

Because in func "elv_attempt_insert_merge", it only to try to
backmerge.So the four request can't merge in theory.
I trace ten minutes and count those situation, it can count 25%.
With the patch,i tested and not found situation like above.
