Jens Axboe 9937a5e2f3 scsi: remove performance regression due to async queue run
Commit c21e6beb removed our queue request_fn re-enter
protection, and defaulted to always running the queues from
kblockd to be safe. This was a known potential slow down,
but should be safe.

Unfortunately this is causing big performance regressions for
some, so we need to improve this logic. Looking into the details
of the re-enter, the real issue is on requeue of requests.

Requeue of requests upon seeing a BUSY condition from the device
ends up re-running the queue, causing traces like this:

scsi_request_fn()
        scsi_dispatch_cmd()
                scsi_queue_insert()
                        __scsi_queue_insert()
                                scsi_run_queue()
					scsi_request_fn()
						...

potentially causing the issue we want to avoid. So special
case the requeue re-run of the queue, but improve it to offload
the entire run of local queue and starved queue from a single
workqueue callback. This is a lot better than potentially
kicking off a workqueue run for each device seen.

This also fixes the issue of the local device going into recursion,
since the above mentioned commit never moved that queue run out
of line.
