virtio-blk: Add bio-based IO path for virtio-blk

This patch introduces bio-based IO path for virtio-blk.

Compared to request-based IO path, bio-based IO path uses driver
provided ->make_request_fn() method to bypasses the IO scheduler. It
handles the bio to device directly without allocating a request in block
layer. This reduces the IO path in guest kernel to achieve high IOPS
and lower latency. The downside is that guest can not use the IO
scheduler to merge and sort requests. However, this is not a big problem
if the backend disk in host side uses faster disk device.

When the bio-based IO path is not enabled, virtio-blk still uses the
original request-based IO path, no performance difference is observed.

Using a slow device e.g. normal SATA disk, the bio-based IO path for
sequential read and write are slower than req-based IO path due to lack
of merge in guest kernel. So we make the bio-based path optional.

Performance evaluation:
-----------------------------
1) Fio test is performed in a 8 vcpu guest with ramdisk based guest using
kvm tool.

How to use:
-----------------------------
Add 'virtio_blk.use_bio=1' to kernel cmdline or 'modprobe virtio_blk
use_bio=1' to enable ->make_request_fn() based I/O path.
