block, bfq: let early-merged queues be weight-raised on split too
A just-created bfq_queue, say Q, may happen to be merged with another bfq_queue on the very first invocation of the function __bfq_insert_request. In such a case, even if Q would clearly deserve interactive weight raising (as it has just been created), the function bfq_add_request does not make it to be invoked for Q, and thus to activate weight raising for Q. As a consequence, when the state of Q is saved for a possible future restore, after a split of Q from the other bfq_queue(s), such a state happens to be (unjustly) non-weight-raised. Then the bfq_queue will not enjoy any weight raising on the split, even if should still be in an interactive weight-raising period when the split occurs. This commit solves this problem as follows, for a just-created bfq_queue that is being early-merged: it stores directly, in the saved state of the bfq_queue, the weight-raising state that would have been assigned to the bfq_queue if not early-merged.
