block, bfq: consider also ioprio classes in symmetry detection
In asymmetric scenarios, i.e., when some bfq_queue or bfq_group needs to be guaranteed a different bandwidth than other bfq_queues or bfq_groups, these service guaranteed can be provided only by plugging I/O dispatch, completely or partially, when the queue in service remains temporarily empty. A case where asymmetry is particularly strong is when some active bfq_queues belong to a higher-priority class than some other active bfq_queues. Unfortunately, this important case is not considered at all in the code for detecting asymmetric scenarios. This commit adds the missing logic.
