Subject: [PATCH 1/3] block/genhd: add sysfs knobs for the device frequency PM QoS

Add sysfs knobs for the following parameters:

    dev_freq_timeout_ms: for clearing up the device frequency limit when
                        latency-intensive block IO is complete

This can be used to prevent delayed responses to latency-sensitive block
I/O operations when storage device operate at low frequency. By
implementing the "dev_freq_timeout_ms", it automatically restores device
frequency constraints throug PM QoS.
