Yes, I know. I just wanted to make the code less fragile... In particular I
was somewhat uneasy that we'd rely on the implicit behavior that
blk_mq_get_sqsched_hctx() can return non-NULL only if sbitmap_any_bit_set()
is not needed. But maybe we could structure the code like:

	sq_hctx = NULL;
	if (blk_mq_has_sqsched(q))
		sq_hctx = blk_mq_get_sq_hctx(q);
	queue_for_each_hw_ctx(q, hctx, i) {
		...
		if (!sq_hctx || sq_hctx == hctx ||
		    !list_empty_careful(&hctx->dispatch))
			... run ...
	}

Because then it is kind of obvious that sq_hctx is set only if there's IO
scheduler for the queue and thus ctx_map is unused. What do you think?
