WL?

Don't do it...

static struct cfq_rb_root *service_tree_for(enum wl_prio_t prio,
					struct cfq_data *cfqd)
{
        if (prio == IDLE_WL)
                return &cfqd->service_tree_idle;

        return &cfqd->service_trees[prio];
}

much cleaner. There are more of these in this patch.

Otherwise it looks sane, and I agree that making the insert cleaner here
is a good bonus.
