Yes. Is it possible to keep a not-backlogged queue in the tree for later
expiry. So that we don't actively wait/idle for next request to come and
hope queue will become backlogged soon. Otherwise, it will be deleted from
the active queue. This is just a thought, I am not even sure how would it
interefere with bfq code.

All this to solve the vtime jump issue for sync queues.

Thanks
