From: Arianna Avanzini <avanzini.arianna@xxxxxxxxx>
CFQ disables idling for SSD devices to achieve a higher throughput. As
for seeky queues (see the previous commit), BFQ makes idling decisions
for SSD devices in a more complex way, according to a unified strategy
for boosting the throughput while at the same preserving strong
throughput-distribution and latency guarantees. This commit then
removes the CFQ mechanism.
