Shaohua Li ef8a41df8c cfq-iosched: give busy sync queue no dispatch limit
If there are a sync and an async queue and the sync queue's think time
is small, we can ignore the sync queue's dispatch quantum. Because the
sync queue will always preempt the async queue, we don't need to care
about async's latency.  This can fix a performance regression of
aiostress test, which is introduced by commit f8ae6e3eb8. The issue
should exist even without the commit, but the commit amplifies the
impact.

The initial post does the same optimization for RT queue too, but since
I have no real workload for it, Vivek suggests to drop it.
