You are absolutely correct. What happens is that the queue is allocated
and initialized, and cfq checks the flag. But the flag is set later in
the process, when we have finished probing the device checked if it's
rotational or not.

There are a few options to handle this. The attached might work, not
tested at all. Basically it adds an io sched registration hook, that is
called when we are adding the disk on the queue. Non-rotational
detection should be done at that point.

Does that work for you?
