struct request has an ioprio member but it is never updated because currently bios do not hold io context information. The implication of this is that virtio_blk ends up passing useless information to the backend driver. That said, some IO schedulers such as CFQ do store io context information in struct request, but use private members for that, which means that that information cannot be directly accessed in a IO scheduler-independent way. This patch adds a function to obtain the ioprio of a request. We should avoid accessing ioprio directly and use this function instead, so that its users do not have to care about future changes in block layer structures or what the currently active IO controller is. This patch does not introduce any functional changes but paves the way for future clean-ups and enhancements.
