Subject: [PATCH] blk-mq: move bio merge attempt to blk_mq_submit_bio()

We will try to get request from cache before alloc request, in
both cases will first attempt bio merge.

This patch move this common part to blk_mq_submit_bio(), which
simplify the code and avoid passing in the pointer of bio.

I don't think this will work. If we get a cached request, then we
know we have a reference to the queue. If you swap these around,
then that's no longer the case and we can have a use-after-free if
the queue goes away.
