The original formula was inaccurate:
dd->async_depth = max(1UL, 3 * q->nr_requests / 4);

For write requests, when we assign a tags from sched_tags,
data->shallow_depth will be passed to sbitmap_find_bit,
see the following code:

nr = sbitmap_find_bit_in_word(&sb->map[index],
			min_t (unsigned int,
			__map_depth(sb, index),
			depth),
			alloc_hint, wrap);

The smaller of data->shallow_depth and __map_depth(sb, index)
will be used as the maximum range when allocating bits.

For a mmc device (one hw queue, deadline I/O scheduler):
q->nr_requests = sched_tags = 128, so according to the previous
calculation method, dd->async_depth = data->shallow_depth = 96,
and the platform is 64bits with 8 cpus, sched_tags.bitmap_tags.sb.shift=5,
sb.maps[]=32/32/32/32, 32 is smaller than 96, whether it is a read or
a write I/O, tags can be allocated to the maximum range each time,
which has not throttling effect.

In addition, refer to the methods of bfg/kyber I/O scheduler,
limit ratiois are calculated base on sched_tags.bitmap_tags.sb.shift.

This patch can throttle write requests really.
