Use all data disks for sequential read operations. Testing discovered inconsistent performance on RAID 10 volumes when performing 256K sequential reads. The driver was only using a single tracker to determine which physical drive to send a request to for AIO requests. Change the single tracker (next_bypass_group) to an array of trackers based on the number of data disks in a row of the RAID map.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
