25c4b5e058 blk-ioprio: don't set bio priority if not needed
We don't need to write to the bio if:

1) No ioprio value has ever been assigned to the blkcg
2) We wouldn't anyway, depending on bio and blkcg IO priority

556910e392 block: Introduce the ioprio rq-qos policy
Introduce an rq-qos policy that assigns an I/O priority to requests based
on blk-cgroup configuration settings. This policy has the following
advantages over the ioprio_set() system call:
- This policy is cgroup based so it has all the advantages of cgroups.
- While ioprio_set() does not affect page cache writeback I/O, this rq-qos
  controller affects page cache writeback I/O for filesystems that support
  assiociating a cgroup with writeback I/O. See also
  Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst.
