Subject: [PATCH 1/2] deadline-iosched: code cleanup, preparation for sync/async patch
This is the first patch of the series, and contains code cleanup
needed before changing read/write to sync/async.
No behavioral change is introduced by this patch.
Code cleanups:
* A single next_rq is sufficient.
* we store fifo insertion time on request, and compute deadline on the
fly, to handle fifo_expire changes better (fifos remain sorted)
* remove unused field
* deadline_latter_request becomes deadline_next_request.
