[PATCH v4 2/2] blk-mq: fix start_time_ns and alloc_time_ns for pre-allocated rq

[chengming . zhou]

From: Chengming Zhou <zhouchengming@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The iocost rely on rq start_time_ns and alloc_time_ns to tell saturation
state of the block device. Most of the time request is allocated after
rq_qos_throttle() and its alloc_time_ns or start_time_ns won't be affected.

But for plug batched allocation introduced by the commit 47c122e35d7e
("block: pre-allocate requests if plug is started and is a batch"), we can
rq_qos_throttle() after the allocation of the request. This is what the
blk_mq_get_cached_request() does.

In this case, the cached request alloc_time_ns or start_time_ns is much
ahead if blocked in any qos ->throttle().

This patch fix it by setting alloc_time_ns and start_time_ns to now
when the pre-allocated rq is actually used. And we skip setting the
alloc_time_ns and start_time_ns during pre-allocation, so just pass 0
in __blk_mq_alloc_requests_batch().
