block: as/cfq ssd idle check update
We really need to know about the hardware tagging support as well, since if the SSD does not do tagging then we still want to idle. Otherwise have the same dependent sync IO vs flooding async IO problem as on rotational media. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
