Please correct me if I am wrong. According to my understanding,
bio(request)'s ioprio is set via either task's scheduler priority or
blkcg's priority during submit_bio, that is, there is no explicit
operation over ioprio from the file system so far. Furthermore, this
commit is actually an add-on feature which is not against the current
way of setting ioprio.
