Divyesh Shah 3a9a3f6cc5 cfq-iosched: Allow RT requests to pre-empt ongoing BE timeslice
This patch adds the ability to pre-empt an ongoing BE timeslice when a RT
request is waiting for the current timeslice to complete. This reduces the
wait time to disk for RT requests from an upper bound of 4 (current value
of cfq_quantum) to 1 disk request.

Applied Jens' suggeested changes to avoid the rb lookup and use !cfq_class_rt()
and retested.

Latency(secs) for the RT task when doing sequential reads from 10G file.
                       | only RT | RT + BE | RT + BE + this patch
small (512 byte) reads | 143     | 163     | 145
large (1Mb) reads      | 142     | 158     | 146
