Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 16/22] block: only call sched requeue_request() for scheduled requests

From: Omar Sandoval <osandov@...com>

[ Upstream commit e8a8a185051a460e3eb0617dca33f996f4e31516 ]

Yang Yang reported the following crash caused by requeueing a flush
request in Kyber:

  [    2.517297] Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffffffd8071c0b00
  ...

This happens because Kyber doesn't track flush requests, so
kyber_finish_request() reads a garbage domain token. Only call the
scheduler's requeue_request() hook if RQF_ELVPRIV is set (like we do for
the finish_request() hook in blk_mq_free_request()). Now that we're
handling it in blk-mq, also remove the check from BFQ.
