Subject: [PATCH 31/36] block: interface update for ioc/icq creation functions

Make the following interface updates to prepare for future ioc related
changes.

* create_io_context() returning ioc only works for %current because it
  doesn't increment ref on the ioc.  Drop @task parameter from it and
  always assume %current.

* Make create_io_context_slowpath() return 0 or -errno and rename it
  to create_task_io_context().

* Make ioc_create_icq() take @ioc as parameter instead of assuming
  that of %current.  The caller, get_request(), is updated to create
  ioc explicitly and then pass it into ioc_create_icq().
