Subject: [PATCH 5.15 068/230] block: only mark bio as tracked if it really is tracked

From: Jens Axboe <axboe@...nel.dk>

[ Upstream commit 90b8faa0e8de1b02b619fb33f6c6e1e13e7d1d70 ]

We set BIO_TRACKED unconditionally when rq_qos_throttle() is called, even
though we may not even have an rq_qos handler. Only mark it as TRACKED if
it really is potentially tracked.

This saves considerable time for the case where the bio isn't tracked:

     2.64%     -1.65%  [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] bio_endio
