Hey, which proposal are you saying was best?

1. Add on to the current scsi mq design where we are doing a single 
device and multiple vqs already. So basically just fix what we have and 
add in patches 12 - 16 to do a thread per VQ?

2. The proposal I stated to hack up over the weekend to try and support 
the current design and then add in support for your multiple device 
single vq design:

I wanted to be clear, because I thought you meant #1, but this comment 
seems like it would only be for #2.
