There is compelling data showing that enabling the mq-deadline block I/O
scheduler as default for multi-queue devices is a sensible default. It
performs well across a range of I/O scenarios and is applicable for
various device drivers (null_blk, virtio-blk, mtip32xx, scsi_mq, NVMe,
rbd, ubiblock, loop, dm and dm-mpath).

For the moment, users who want to disable mq I/O schduling can diable
this with a kernel boot paremater, for example for SCSI block devices
use: scsi_mod.use_blk_mq=0.  This will fall back to the I/O scheduler
defaults used in releases prior to 4.20 kernels in Ubuntu.

For non-multiqueue devices we currently fall back to the current
Ubuntu default of cfq, although at a later date  I'd like to change
this too to deadline once the mq-deadline defaults have settled in.
