Tejun Heo 07c2bd3735 block: don't call elevator callbacks for plug merges 
Plug merge calls two elevator callbacks outside queue lock -
elevator_allow_merge_fn() and elevator_bio_merged_fn().  Although
attempt_plug_merge() suggests that elevator is guaranteed to be there
through the existing request on the plug list, nothing prevents plug
merge from calling into dying or initializing elevator.

For regular merges, bypass ensures elvpriv count to reach zero, which
in turn prevents merges as all !ELVPRIV requests get REQ_SOFTBARRIER
from forced back insertion.  Plug merge doesn't check ELVPRIV, and, as
the requests haven't gone through elevator insertion yet, it doesn't
have SOFTBARRIER set allowing merges on a bypassed queue.

This, for example, leads to the following crash during elevator
switch.

There are multiple ways to fix this including making plug merge check
ELVPRIV; however,

* Calling into elevator outside queue lock is confusing and
  error-prone.

* Requests on plug list aren't known to the elevator.  They aren't on
  the elevator yet, so there's no elevator specific state to update.

* Given the nature of plug merges - collecting bio's for the same
  purpose from the same issuer - elevator specific restrictions aren't
  applicable.

So, simply don't call into elevator methods from plug merge by moving
elv_bio_merged() from bio_attempt_*_merge() to blk_queue_bio(), and
using blk_try_merge() in attempt_plug_merge().

This is based on Jens' patch to skip elevator_allow_merge_fn() from
plug merge.

Note that this makes per-cgroup merged stats skip plug merging.
