[PATCH v4 2/5] block: wire-up support for passthrough plugging

[Kanchan Joshi]

From: Jens Axboe <axboe at kernel.dk>

Add support for plugging in passthrough path. When plugging is enabled, the
requests are added to a plug instead of getting dispatched to the driver.
And when the plug is finished, the whole batch gets dispatched via
->queue_rqs which turns out to be more efficient. Otherwise dispatching
used to happen via ->queue_rq, one request at a time.
