Breno Leitao b4ff6e93bf elevator: do not request_module if elevator exists ... Whenever an I/O elevator is changed, the system attempts to load a module for the new elevator. This occurs regardless of whether the elevator is already loaded or built directly into the kernel. This behavior introduces unnecessary overhead and potential issues. This makes the operation slower, and more error-prone. For instance, making the problem fixed by [1] visible for users that doesn't even rely on modules being available through modules. Do not try to load the ioscheduler if it is already visible. This change brings two main benefits: it improves the performance of elevator changes, and it reduces the likelihood of errors occurring during this process.
