Previously, using wait_event() would wake up all waiters simultaneously,
and they would compete for the tree lock. The bio which gets the lock
first will be handled, so the write sequence cannot be guaranteed.
For example:
bio1(100,200)
bio2(150,200)
bio3(150,300)
The write sequence of fast device is bio1,bio2,bio3. But the write sequence
of slow device could be bio1,bio3,bio2 due to lock competition. This causes
data corruption.
Replace waitqueue with a fifo list to guarantee the write sequence. And it
also needs to iterate the list when removing one entry. If not, it may miss
the opportunity to wake up the waiting io.
For example:
bio1(1,3), bio2(2,4)
bio3(5,7), bio4(6,8)
These four bios are in the same bucket. bio1 and bio3 are inserted into
the rbtree. bio2 and bio4 are added to the waiting list and bio2 is the
first one. bio3 returns from slow disk and tries to wake up the waiting
bios. bio2 is removed from the list and will be handled. But bio1 hasn't
finished. So bio2 will be added into waiting list again. Then bio1 returns
from slow disk and wakes up waiting bios. bio4 is removed from the list
and will be handled. Now bio1, bio3 and bio4 all finish and bio2 is left
on the waiting list. So it needs to iterate the waiting list to wake up
the right bio.

v2: use prepare_to_wait_exclusive
v3: return back to self managed fifo list to find the right waiting node
