Subject: [PATCH] block: Fix elevator_get_default() to check for null q->tag_set

Fix null pointer error by checking if q->tag_set is null.
Address "block/elevator.c:569 elevator_get_default() error:
we previously assumed 'q->tag_set' could be null (see line 565)"
This change prevents errors by making sure q->tag_set is valid
before accessing its flags.
