Stefan Hajnoczi fc73548e44 virtio-blk: use blk_io_plug/unplug for Linux AIO batching
The raw-posix block driver implements Linux AIO batching so multiple
requests can be submitted with a single io_submit(2) system call.
Batching is currently only used by virtio-scsi and
virtio-blk-data-plane.

Enable batching for regular virtio-blk so the number of io_submit(2)
system calls is reduced for workloads with queue depth > 1.

In 4KB random read performance tests with queue depth 32, the CPU
utilization on the host is reduced by 9.4%.  The fio job is as follows:

  [global]
  bs=4k
  ioengine=libaio
  iodepth=32
  direct=1
  sync=0
  time_based=1
  runtime=30
  clocksource=gettimeofday
  ramp_time=5

  [job1]
  rw=randread
  filename=/dev/vdb
  size=4096M
  write_bw_log=fio
  write_iops_log=fio
  write_lat_log=fio
  log_avg_msec=1000

This benchmark was run on an raw image on LVM.  The disk was an SSD
drive and -drive cache=none,aio=native was used.
