Subject[PATCH v3 for-5.18/block] block: don't merge across cgroup boundaries if blkcg is enabled
blk-iocost and iolatency are cgroup aware rq-qos policies but they didn't
disable merges across different cgroups. This obviously can lead to
accounting and control errors but more importantly to priority inversions -
e.g. an IO which belongs to a higher priority cgroup or IO class may end up
getting throttled incorrectly because it gets merged to an IO issued from a
low priority cgroup.

Fix it by adding blk_cgroup_mergeable() which is called from merge paths and
rejects cross-cgroup and cross-issue_as_root merges.

v2 was tagged for-5.18/block but was still based on block-for-5.17. Refresh
on top of for-5.18/block. My apologies about all the messiness.

v3: Actually rebased on top of block/for-5.18.

v2: Dropped conditional enabling. Always disallow cross-blkcg merges for
simpilcity. While this may spuriously prevent some merges for cases
where blkcg is enabled but no control is applied, that is a small cross
section.
