Patch one can introduce elv->lock and the helpers, then patch 2 use the helpers
to replace dd->lock. Just don't say "no functional change" in the commit
message and rather explain that things keep working the same way as before, but
using a different lock. That will address Bart's comment too.
And same for bfq in patch 3.
