[PATCH] block: add max_dispatch to sysfs

[Dongliang Cui <dongliang.cui@unisoc.com>]

The default configuration in the current code is that when the device
is not busy, a single dispatch will attempt to pull 'nr_requests'
requests out of the schedule queue.

I tried to track the dispatch process:

COMM            TYPE    SEC_START       IOPRIO       INDEX
fio-17304       R	196798040	0x2005	     0
fio-17306       R	197060504	0x2005	     1
fio-17307       R	197346904	0x2005	     2
fio-17308       R	197609400	0x2005	     3
fio-17309       R	197873048	0x2005	     4
fio-17310       R	198134936	0x2005	     5
...
fio-17237       R	197122936	  0x0	    57
fio-17238       R	197384984	  0x0	    58
<...>-17239     R	197647128	  0x0	    59
fio-17240       R	197909208	  0x0	    60
fio-17241       R	198171320	  0x0	    61
fio-17242       R	198433432	  0x0	    62
fio-17300       R	195744088	0x2005	     0
fio-17301       R	196008504	0x2005	     0

The above data is calculated based on the block event trace, with each
column containing: process name, request type, sector start address,
IO priority.

The INDEX represents the order in which the requests are extracted from
the scheduler queue during a single dispatch process.

Some low-speed devices cannot process these requests at once, and they will
be requeued to hctx->dispatch and wait for the next issuance.

There will be a problem here, when the IO priority is enabled, if you try
to dispatch "nr_request" requests at once, the IO priority will be ignored
from the scheduler queue and all requests will be extracted.

In this scenario, if a high priority request is inserted into the scheduler
queue, it needs to wait for the low priority request in the hctx->dispatch
to be processed first.

--------------------dispatch 1st----------------------
fio-17241       R       198171320         0x0       61
fio-17242       R       198433432         0x0       62
--------------------dispatch 2nd----------------------
fio-17300       R       195744088       0x2005       0

In certain scenarios, we hope that requests can be processed in order of io
priority as much as possible.

Maybe max_dispatch should not be a fixed value, but can be adjusted
according to device conditions.

So we give a interface to control the maximum value of single dispatch
so that users can configure it according to devices characteristics.
