Subject: elevator: Fix a race about elevator switching.

Thare's a race between elevator switching and normal io operation.
    Because the allocation of struct elevator_queue and struct elevator_data
    don't in a atomic operation.So there are have chance to use NULL
    ->elevator_data.
    For example:
        Thread A:                               		Thread B
       blk_flush_plug_list                            elevator_switch
      __elv_add_request)           					
      blk_peek_request                              elevator_alloc
      noop_dispatch
															  elevator_init_fn
    Because call elevator_alloc, it can't hold queue_lock and the 
    ->elevator_data is NULL after allocating.So at the same time, threadA call elv_merge and
    nedd some info of elevator_data.So the crash happened.

    Move the elevator_alloc into func elevator_init_fn, it make the
    operations in a atomic operation.
    
    Using the follow method can easy reproduce this bug
    1:dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/null
    2:while true;do echo noop > scheduler;echo deadline > scheduler;done
    
    The test method also use this method.
