+ * blk_rq_check_limits - Helper function to check a request for the queue limit
+ * @q: the queue
+ * @rq: the request being checked
+ *
+ * Description:
+ * @rq may have been made based on weaker limitations of upper-level queues
+ * in request stacking drivers, and it may violate the limitation of @q.
+ * Since the block layer and the underlying device driver trust @rq
+ * after it is inserted to @q, it should be checked against @q before
+ * the insertion using this generic function.
+ *
+ * This function should also be useful for request stacking drivers
+ * in some cases below, so export this fuction.
+ * Request stacking drivers like request-based dm may change the queue
+ * limits while requests are in the queue (e.g. dm's table swapping).
+ * Such request stacking drivers should check those requests agaist
+ * the new queue limits again when they dispatch those requests,
+ * although such checkings are also done against the old queue limits
+ * when submitting requests.
