Tejun Heo 6a525600ff blk-throttle: remove pointless throtl_nr_queued() optimizations
throtl_nr_queued() is used in several places to avoid performing
certain operations when the throtl_data is empty.  This usually is
useless as those paths usually aren't traveled if there's no bio
queued.

* throtl_schedule_delayed_work() skips scheduling dispatch work item
  if @td doesn't have any bios queued; however, the only case it can
  be called when @td is empty is from tg_set_conf() which isn't
  something we should be optimizing for.

* throtl_schedule_next_dispatch() takes a quick exit if @td is empty;
  however, right after that it triggers BUG if the service tree is
  empty.  The two conditions are equivalent and it can just test
  @st->count for the quick exit.

* blk_throtl_dispatch_work_fn() skips dispatch if @td is empty.  This
  work function isn't usually invoked when @td is empty.  The only
  possibility is from tg_set_conf() and when it happens the normal
  dispatching path can handle empty @td fine.  No need to add special
  skip path.

This patch removes the above three unnecessary optimizations, which
leave throtl_log() call in blk_throtl_dispatch_work_fn() the only user
of throtl_nr_queued().  Remove throtl_nr_queued() and open code it in
throtl_log().  I don't think we need td->nr_queued[] at all.  Maybe we
can remove it later.
