Requesting a module either succeeds or does nothing, return an error from
this method does not make sense.
Also move the load_module after the store method in the struct
declaration to keep the important show and store methods together.

Commit af28141498 ("block: freeze the queue in queue_attr_store")
changed queue_attr_store() to always freeze a sysfs attribute queue
before calling the attribute store() method, to ensure that no IOs are
in-flight when an attribute value is being updated.
However, this change created a potential deadlock situation for the
scheduler queue attribute as changing the queue elevator with
elv_iosched_store() can result in a call to request_module() if the user
requested module is not already registered. If the file of the requested
module is stored on the block device of the frozen queue, a deadlock
will happen as the read operations triggered by request_module() will
wait for the queue freeze to end.
Solve this issue by introducing the load_module method in struct
queue_sysfs_entry, and to calling this method function in
queue_attr_store() before freezing the attribute queue.
The macro definition QUEUE_RW_LOAD_MODULE_ENTRY() is added to define a
queue sysfs attribute that needs loading a module.
The definition of the scheduler atrribute is changed to using
QUEUE_RW_LOAD_MODULE_ENTRY(), with the function
elv_iosched_load_module() defined as the load_module method.
elv_iosched_store() can then be simplified to remove the call to
request_module().

The kobject for the queue entries is embedded into a struct gendisk.
Pass it to the sysfs methods instead of the request_queue derived from
it.

The only elevator feature ever implemented is ELEVATOR_F_ZBD_SEQ_WRITE
for signaling that a scheduler implements zone write locking to tightly
control the dispatching order of write operations to zoned block
devices. With the removal of zone write locking support in mq-deadline
and the reliance of all block device drivers on the block layer zone
write plugging to control ordering of write operations to zones, the
elevator feature ELEVATOR_F_ZBD_SEQ_WRITE is completely unused.
Remove it, and also remove the now unused code for filtering the
possible schedulers for a block device based on required features.

Make sure we have helpers for all relevant module refcount operations on
the elevator_type in elevator.h, and use them. Move the call to the get
helper in blk_mq_elv_switch_none a bit so that it is obvious with a less
verbose comment.

Commit b5dc5d4d1f ("block,bfq: Disable writeback throttling") tries to
disable wbt for bfq, it's done by calling wbt_disable_default() in
bfq_init_queue(). However, wbt is still enabled if default elevator is
bfq:
device_add_disk
elevator_init_mq
bfq_init_queue
wbt_disable_default -> done nothing
blk_register_queue
wbt_enable_default -> wbt is enabled
Fix the problem by adding a new flag ELEVATOR_FLAG_DISBALE_WBT, bfq
will set the flag in bfq_init_queue, and following wbt_enable_default()
won't enable wbt while the flag is set.

Use the new blk_opf_t type for arguments and variables that represent
request flags or a bitwise combination of a request operation and
request flags. Rename the function arguments and also a structure member
that hold a request operation and flags from 'rw' into 'opf'.
This patch does not change any functionality.

Except for the features passed to blk_queue_required_elevator_features,
elevator.h is only needed internally to the block layer. Move the
ELEVATOR_F_* definitions to blkdev.h, and the move elevator.h to
block/, dropping all the spurious includes outside of that.
