[GIT PULL] Block fixes for 6.19-rc5

[Jens Axboe]

Hi Linus,

A few fixes that should go into block for the 6.19-rc5 kernel release.
This pull request contains:

- Kill unlikely checks for blk-rq-qos. These checks are really
  all-or-nothing, either the branch is taken all the time, or it's not.
  Depending on the configuration, either one of those cases may be true.
  Just remove the annotation.

- Fix for merging bios with different app tags set.

- Fix for a recently introduced slowdown due to RCU synchronization.

- Fix for a status change on loop while it's in use, and then a later
  fix for that fix.

- Fix for the async partition scanning in ublk.

Please pull!
