[ Upstream commit 7f2a6a69f7ced6db8220298e0497cf60482a9d4b ] Limiting number of request to BLK_MAX_REQUEST_COUNT at blk_plug hurts performance for large md arrays. [1] shows resync speed of md array drops for md array with more than 16 HDDs. Fix this by allowing more request at plug queue. The multiple_queue flag is used to only apply higher limit to multiple queue cases.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
