Subject: [PATCH -mm] [1/3] add elv_extended_request call to iosched API
the Elevator iosched would prefer to be unconditionally notified of a
merge, but the current API calls only one 'merge' notifier
(elv_merge_requests or elv_merged_requests), even if both front and
back merges happened.
elv_extended_request satisfies this requirement in conjunction with
elv_merge_requests.
