[RFC PATCH v2] blk-mq: hctx has only one ctx mapping is no need to redirect the completion

From: Liu Song <liusong@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

High-performance NVMe devices usually support a larger number of hw queue,
which ensures a 1:1 mapping of hctx and ctx. In this case there will be no
remote request, so we don't need to care about it.
