[PATCH, RFC] block: set noio context in submit_bio_noacct_nocheck

[Christoph Hellwig]

Make sure all in-line block layer submission runs in noio reclaim
context.  This is a big step towards allowing GFP_NOIO, the other
one would be to have noio (and nofs for that matter) workqueues for
kblockd and driver internal workqueues.
