block: fix default IO priority handling
The default IO priority is the best effort (BE) class with the normal priority level IOPRIO_NORM (4). However, get_task_ioprio() returns IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE/IOPRIO_NORM as the default priority and get_current_ioprio() returns IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE/0. Let's be consistent with the defined default and have both of these functions return the default priority IOPRIO_PRIO_VALUE(IOPRIO_CLASS_BE, IOPRIO_NORM) when the user did not define another default IO priority for the task. In include/uapi/linux/ioprio.h, introduce the IOPRIO_BE_NORM macro as an alias to IOPRIO_NORM to clarify that this default level applies to the BE priotity class. In include/linux/ioprio.h, define the macro IOPRIO_DEFAULT as IOPRIO_PRIO_VALUE(IOPRIO_CLASS_BE, IOPRIO_BE_NORM) and use this new macro when setting a priority to the default.
