Subject: [PATCH v3] block: plug attempts to batch allocate tags multiple
times
In the existing plug mechanism, tags are allocated in batches based on
the number of requests. However, testing has shown that the plug only
attempts batch allocation of tags once at the beginning of a batch of
I/O operations. Since the tag_mask does not always have enough available
tags to satisfy the requested number, a full batch allocation is not
guaranteed to succeed each time. The remaining tags are then allocated
individually (occurs frequently), leading to multiple single-tag
allocation overheads.
This patch aims to retry batch allocation of tags when the initial batch
allocation fails to reach the requested number, thereby reducing the
overhead of individual allocation attempts.

changes since v1:
- Modify multiple batch registrations into a single loop to achieve
the batch quantity
changes since v2:
- Modify the call location of remainder handling
- Refactoring sbitmap cleanup time
