sched/core: move IO scheduling accounting from io_schedule_timeout() into scheduler
For an interface to support blocking for IOs, it must call io_schedule() instead of schedule(). This makes it tedious to add IO blocking to existing interfaces as the switching between schedule() and io_schedule() is often buried deep. As we already have a way to mark the task as IO scheduling, this can be made easier by separating out io_schedule() into multiple steps so that IO schedule preparation can be performed before invoking a blocking interface and the actual accounting happens inside the scheduler. io_schedule_timeout() does the following three things prior to calling schedule_timeout(). 1. Mark the task as scheduling for IO. 2. Flush out plugged IOs. 3. Account the IO scheduling. done close to the actual scheduling. This patch moves #3 into the scheduler so that later patches can separate out preparation and finish steps from io_schedule().
