Subject: [PATCH V5 5/8] block: add check on elevator for supporting bio merge via hashtable from blk-mq sw queue

blk_mq_sched_try_merge() will be reused in following patches
to support bio merge to blk-mq sw queue, so add checkes to
related functions which are called from blk_mq_sched_try_merge().
