block/mq-deadline: Micro-optimize the batching algorithm
When dispatching the first request of a batch, the deadline_move_request() call clears .next_rq[] for the opposite data direction. .next_rq[] is not restored when changing data direction. Fix this by not clearing .next_rq[] and by keeping track of the data direction of a batch in a variable instead. This patch is a micro-optimization because: - The number of deadline_next_request() calls for the read direction is halved. - The number of times that deadline_next_request() returns NULL is reduced.
