Please find below for summary of the test result. The test case is
collecting io time of mmaped VA(from scheduler point of view) among
mix access of mmaped and vfs file data concurrently. sda is a raw disk
partition which is used for source data of command dd.

The commit's basic idea is the request priority should be decided by
the pages it carry instead of(or together with) the launcher.

ok. The iterating is on purpose here to not enlarge the bio and
request structure. The magic number would be replaced by an more
sensible criteria like MULTI_GEN's thrashing tier things.

That is for code's integrity of getting the request's prio for either
this feature enabled or not.
