The fair sharing algorithm has a negative performance impact for storage
devices for which the full queue depth is required to reach peak
performance, e.g. UFS devices. This is because it takes long after a
request queue became inactive until tags are reassigned to the active
request queue(s). Since making tag sharing fair is not needed if the
request processing latency is similar for all request queues, introduce
the hctx / tag set flag BLK_MQ_F_DISABLE_FAIR_TAG_SHARING.
