Instead of calling blk_mq_end_request() on a single request, add a helper
that takes the new struct io_comp_batch and completes any request stored

struct io_comp_batch contains a list head and a completion handler, which
will allow completions to more effciently completed batches of IO.
For now, no functional changes in this patch, we just define the
io_comp_batch structure and add the argument to the file_operations iopoll
handler.

Just like the blk_mq_ctx counterparts, we've got a bunch of counters
in here that are only for debugfs and are of questionnable value. They
are:
- dispatched, index of how many requests were dispatched in one go
- poll_{considered,invoked,success}, which track poll sucess rates. We're
confident in the iopoll implementation at this point, don't bother
tracking these.
As a bonus, this shrinks each hardware queue from 576 bytes to 512 bytes,
dropping a whole cacheline.

These were added as part of early days debugging for blk-mq, and they
are not really useful anymore. Rather than spend cycles updating them,
just get rid of them.

Add an rq private RQF_ELV flag, which tells the block layer that this
request was initialized on a queue that has an IO scheduler attached.
This allows for faster checking in the fast path, rather than having to
deference rq->q later on.
Elevator switching does full quiesce of the queue before detaching an
IO scheduler, so it's safe to cache this in the request itself.

Replace the blk_poll interface that requires the caller to keep a queue
and cookie from the submissions with polling based on the bio.
Polling for the bio itself leads to a few advantages:
- the cookie construction can made entirely private in blk-mq.c
- the caller does not need to remember the request_queue and cookie
separately and thus sidesteps their lifetime issues
- keeping the device and the cookie inside the bio allows to trivially
support polling BIOs remapping by stacking drivers
- a lot of code to propagate the cookie back up the submission path can
be removed entirely.

Currently we scan the entire plug list, which is potentially very
expensive. In an IOPS bound workload, we can drive about 5.6M IOPS with
merging enabled, and profiling shows that the plug merge check is the
(by far) most expensive thing we're doing:
Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol
+ 20.89% io_uring [kernel.vmlinux] [k] blk_attempt_plug_merge
+ 4.98% io_uring [kernel.vmlinux] [k] io_submit_sqes
+ 4.78% io_uring [kernel.vmlinux] [k] blkdev_direct_IO
+ 4.61% io_uring [kernel.vmlinux] [k] blk_mq_submit_bio
Instead of browsing the whole list, just check the previously inserted
entry. That is enough for a naive merge check and will catch most cases,
and for devices that need full merging, the IO scheduler attached to
such devices will do that anyway. The plug merge is meant to be an
inexpensive check to avoid getting a request, but if we repeatedly
scan the list for every single insert, it is very much not a cheap
check.
With this patch, the workload instead runs at ~7.0M IOPS, providing
a 25% improvement. Disabling merging entirely yields another 5%
improvement.
