Subject: [PATCH] appliance/init: Don't set impossible "noop" disk scheduler
Since RHEL 7.4, the noop scheduler is no longer a thing. Trying to
set it results in the error:
+ echo noop
/init: line 108: echo: write error: Invalid argument
The current recommendation (https://access.redhat.com/solutions/5427)
is to use mq-deadline, but that's also the default so we don't have to
do anything.
A bigger reason to remove these lines is that kernel 6.11.0 has
introduced a hang where -- rarely -- the ext4 filesystem hangs if you
try to change the scheduler while handing a page fault, even if you're
setting a scheduler that doesn't exist. I couldn't get much detail
except for a couple of stack traces from different VMs:
