blk-mq request plugging can improve the execution of our pipeline. When we queue a request we actually trigger our I/O worker thread yielding a context switch by definition. However if we know that there are more requests in the pipe that are coming, we are better off not trigger our I/O worker and only do that for the last request in the batch (bd->last). By having it, we improve efficiency by amortizing context switches over a batch of requests.
