Subject: [PATCH] io-controller: optimization for iog deletion when elevator
 exiting

Hi Vivek,

There's no need to travel the iocg->group_data for each iog
when exiting a elevator, that costs too much. An alternative 
solution is reseting iocg_id as soon as an io group unlinking 
from a iocg. Make a decision that whether it's need to carry 
out deleting action by checking iocg_id.
