Jens Axboe 5dd531a03a block: add function call to switch the IO scheduler from a driver
Currently drivers must do an elevator_exit() + elevator_init()
to switch IO schedulers. There are a few problems with this:

- Since commit 1abec4fdbb,
  elevator_init() requires a zeroed out q->elevator
  pointer. The two existing in-kernel users don't do that.

- It will only work at initialization time, since using the
  above two-staged construct does not properly quisce the queue.

So add elevator_change() which takes care of this, and convert
the elv_iosched_store() sysfs interface to use this helper as well.
