blk-mq: only attempt to merge bio if there is rq in sw queue
[ Upstream commit b04f50ab8a74129b3041a2836c33c916be3c6667 ] Only attempt to merge bio iff the ctx->rq_list isn't empty, because: 1) for high-performance SSD, most of times dispatch may succeed, then there may be nothing left in ctx->rq_list, so don't try to merge over sw queue if it is empty, then we can save one acquiring of ctx->lock 2) we can't expect good merge performance on per-cpu sw queue, and missing one merge on sw queue won't be a big deal since tasks can be scheduled from one CPU to another.
