blk-mq: complete req in softirq context in case of single queue

Browse Source 
Lot of controllers may have only one irq vector for completing IO
request. And usually affinity of the only irq vector is all possible
CPUs, however, on most of ARCH, there may be only one specific CPU
for handling this interrupt.

So if all IOs are completed in hardirq context, it is inevitable to
degrade IO performance because of increased irq latency.

This patch tries to address this issue by allowing to complete request
in softirq context, like the legacy IO path.

IOPS is observed as ~13%+ in the following randread test on raid0 over
virtio-scsi.

mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md0 --level=0 --chunk=1024 --raid-devices=8 /dev/sdb /dev/sdc /dev/sdd /dev/sde /dev/sdf /dev/sdg /dev/sdh /dev/sdi

fio --time_based --name=benchmark --runtime=30 --filename=/dev/md0 --nrfiles=1 --ioengine=libaio --iodepth=32 --direct=1 --invalidate=1 --verify=0 --verify_fatal=0 --numjobs=32 --rw=randread --blocksize=4k
