block: kill QUEUE_FLAG_NO_SG_MERGE
Since bdced438acd83ad83a6c ("block: setup bi_phys_segments after splitting"), physical segment number is mainly figured out in blk_queue_split() for fast path, and the flag of BIO_SEG_VALID is set there too. Now only blk_recount_segments() and blk_recalc_rq_segments() use this flag. Basically blk_recount_segments() is bypassed in fast path given BIO_SEG_VALID is set in blk_queue_split(). For another user of blk_recalc_rq_segments(): - run in partial completion branch of blk_update_request, which is an unusual case - run in blk_cloned_rq_check_limits(), still not a big problem if the flag is killed since dm-rq is the only user. Multi-page bvec is enabled now, not doing S/G merging is rather pointless with the current setup of the I/O path, as it isn't going to save you a significant amount of cycles.
