Here's the patch.

* It disables iocost when bfq iosched is selected. iocost is only
re-enabled when bfq module is unloaded. While it can easily be made
to flip when there's no bfq queue left, I think minimizing the
number of switches is likely is better.

* It looks like building bfq as module has been broken for some time
and I added symbol exports to make it work. They should be
separated into a separate patch.

* It doesn't actually rename any of the bfq interface files. It just
gets rid of potential conflict from iocost.

Please feel free to use / modify the patch however you see fit.

Thanks.
