# A workaround for RHEL/CentOS 7.3 bug in kernel.
# Merging implementation on blk-mq does not respect virt boundary
# restriction and front merges bios with non-zero offsets.
# This leads to request with gaps between bios and in consequence
# triggers BUG_ON() in nvme driver or silently corrupts data.
# To prevent this, disable merging on cache queue if there are
# requirements regarding virt boundary (marking bios with REQ_NOMERGE
# does not solve this problem).
