Comment 18 for bug 1910866

@kaihengfeng

So v5.7 was fine and after many reboots it has been found that this commit below introduced the issue.

Do I also need to find when the issue was resolved ? (between v5.8-rc1 and v5.9.10) or is this information enough ?

54b2fcee1db041a83b52b51752dade6090cf952f is the first bad commit
commit 54b2fcee1db041a83b52b51752dade6090cf952f

    nvme-pci: remove last_sq_tail

    The nvme driver does not have enough tags to wrap the queue, and blk-mq
    will no longer call commit_rqs() when there are no new submissions to
    notify.
