Jeff Moyer df5fe3e8e1 cfq: merge cooperating cfq_queues
When cooperating cfq_queues are detected currently, they are allowed to
skip ahead in the scheduling order.  It is much more efficient to
automatically share the cfq_queue data structure between cooperating processes.
Performance of the read-test2 benchmark (which is written to emulate the
dump(8) utility) went from 12MB/s to 90MB/s on my SATA disk.  NFS servers
with multiple nfsd threads also saw performance increases.
