Move the io_stat flag into the queue_limits feature field so that it

Why a feature ? It seems more appropriate for io_stat to be a flag rather than
a feature as that is a block layer thing rather than a device characteristic, no ?


Simplify md and dm to set the flag unconditionally instead of avoiding
setting a simple flag for cases where it already is set by other means,
which is a bit pointless.
