Hi,

This is a continuation of the patches posted yesterday, I continued
to build on them. The patch series does:

- Move the hash backmerging into the elevator core.
- Move the rbtree handling into the elevator core.
- Abstract the FIFO handling into the elevator core.
- Kill the io scheduler private requests, that require allocation/free
  for each request passed through the system.

The result is a faster elevator core (and faster IO schedulers), with a
nice net reduction of kernel text and code as well.

If you have time, please give this patch series a test spin just to
verify that everything still works for you. Thanks!
