[PATCH 1/5] block: enable batched allocation for blk_mq_alloc_request()

[Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx>]

The filesystem IO path can take advantage of allocating batches of
requests, if the underlying submitter tells the block layer about it
through the blk_plug. For passthrough IO, the exported API is the
blk_mq_alloc_request() helper, and that one does not allow for
request caching.

Wire up request caching for blk_mq_alloc_request(), which is generally
done without having a bio available upfront.
