From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@xxxxxxxxxx> Currently issue io can grab queue_lock three times from bfq_bio_merge(), bfq_limit_depth() and bfq_prepare_request(), the queue_lock is not necessary if icq is already created because both queue and ioc can't be freed before io issuing is done, hence remove the unnecessary queue_lock and use rcu to protect radix tree lookup. Noted this is also a prep patch to support request batch dispatching[1].
