Subject: [PATCH V9 4/8] block, bfq: turn bfqq_data into an array in bfq_io_cq

When a bfq_queue Q is merged with another queue, several pieces of
information are saved about Q. These pieces are stored in the
bfqq_data field in the bfq_io_cq data structure of the process
associated with Q.

Yet, with a multi-actuator drive, a process may get associated with
multiple bfq_queues: one queue for each of the N actuators. Each of
these queues may undergo a merge. So, the bfq_io_cq data structure
must be able to accommodate the above information for N queues.

This commit solves this problem by turning the bfqq_data scalar field
into an array of N elements (and by changing code so as to handle
this array).

This solution is written under the assumption that bfq_queues
associated with different actuators cannot be cross-merged. This
assumption holds naturally with basic queue merging: the latter is
triggered by spatial locality, and sectors for different actuators are
not close to each other (apart from the corner case of the last
sectors served by a given actuator and the first sectors served by the
next actuator). As for stable cross-merging, the assumption here is
that it is disabled.

If you reverse the if condition and return NULL here you can save one tab

Otherwise, looks OK.
