[PATCH 19/33] blk-throttle: generalize update_disptime optimization in blk_throtl_bio()

[Tejun Heo <tj-DgEjT+Ai2ygdnm+yROfE0A@public.gmane.org>]

When blk_throtl_bio() wants to queue a bio to a tg (throtl_grp), it
avoids invoking tg_update_disptime() and
throtl_schedule_next_dispatch() if the tg already has bios queued in
that direction.  As a new bio is appeneded after the existing ones, it
can't change the tg's next dispatch time or the parent's dispatch
schedule.

This optimization is currently open coded in blk_throtl_bio().
Whether the target biolist was occupied was recorded in a local
variable and later used to skip disptime update.  This patch moves
generalizes it so that throtl_add_bio_tg() sets a new flag
THROTL_TG_WAS_EMPTY if the biolist was empty before the new bio was
added.  tg_update_disptime() clears the flag automatically.
blk_throtl_bio() is updated to simply test the flag before updating
disptime.

This patch doesn't make any functional differences now but will enable
using the same optimization for recursive dispatch.
