Commit 2327c3f
block: Fix elv_iosched_local_module handling of "none" scheduler
commit e3accac upstream.
Commit 734e1a8 ("block: Prevent deadlocks when switching
elevators") introduced the function elv_iosched_load_module() to allow
loading an elevator module outside of elv_iosched_store() with the
target device queue not frozen, to avoid deadlocks. However, the "none"
scheduler does not have a module and as a result,
elv_iosched_load_module() always returns an error when trying to switch
to this valid scheduler.
Fix this by ignoring the return value of the request_module() call
done by elv_iosched_load_module(). This restores the behavior before
commit 734e1a8, which was to ignore the request_module() result and
instead rely on elevator_change() to handle the "none" scheduler case.
