Yu Kuai ed30c38d1e lib/sbitmap: convert shallow_depth from one word to the whole sbitmap
[ Upstream commit 42e6c6ce03fd3e41e39a0f93f9b1a1d9fa664338 ]

Currently elevators will record internal 'async_depth' to throttle
asynchronous requests, and they both calculate shallow_dpeth based on
sb->shift, with the respect that sb->shift is the available tags in one
word.

However, sb->shift is not the availbale tags in the last word, see
__map_depth:

if (index == sb->map_nr - 1)
  return sb->depth - (index << sb->shift);

For consequence, if the last word is used, more tags can be get than
expected, for example, assume nr_requests=256 and there are four words,
in the worst case if user set nr_requests=32, then the first word is
the last word, and still use bits per word, which is 64, to calculate
async_depth is wrong.

One the ohter hand, due to cgroup qos, bfq can allow only one request
to be allocated, and set shallow_dpeth=1 will still allow the number
of words request to be allocated.

Fix this problems by using shallow_depth to the whole sbitmap instead
of per word, also change kyber, mq-deadline and bfq to follow this,
a new helper __map_depth_with_shallow() is introduced to calculate
available bits in each word.
