In general these changes need a solid audit relative to stacking
drivers. That is, the limits stacking methods (blk_stack_limits)
vs lower level allocation methods (__device_add_disk).
You optimized for lowlevel __device_add_disk establishing the bdi's
ra_pages and io_pages. That is at the beginning of disk allocation,
well before any build up of stacking driver's queue_io_opt() -- which
was previously done in disk_stack_limits or driver specific methods
(e.g. dm_table_set_restrictions) that are called _after_ all the limits
stacking occurs.
By inverting the setting of the bdi's ra_pages and io_pages to be done
so early in __device_add_disk it'll break properly setting these values
for at least DM afaict.
