blk-throttle: generalize update_disptime optimization in blk_throtl_bio()
When blk_throtl_bio() wants to queue a bio to a tg (throtl_grp), it avoids invoking tg_update_disptime() and throtl_schedule_next_dispatch() if the tg already has bios queued in that direction. As a new bio is appeneded after the existing ones, it can't change the tg's next dispatch time or the parent's dispatch schedule. This optimization is currently open coded in blk_throtl_bio(). Whether the target biolist was occupied was recorded in a local variable and later used to skip disptime update. This patch moves generalizes it so that throtl_add_bio_tg() sets a new flag THROTL_TG_WAS_EMPTY if the biolist was empty before the new bio was added. tg_update_disptime() clears the flag automatically. blk_throtl_bio() is updated to simply test the flag before updating disptime. This patch doesn't make any functional differences now but will enable using the same optimization for recursive dispatch.
