There really isn't any good reason to stash a method directly into
struct gendisk.  Move it together with the other block device
operations.

<title>block/diskstats: replace time_in_queue with sum of request times</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8cd5b8fc00716fb71f6b32d594b38a8f286d6c20</id>
<content type='text'>
Column "time_in_queue" in diskstats is supposed to show total waiting time
of all requests. I.e. value should be equal to the sum of times from other
columns. But this is not true, because column "time_in_queue" is counted
separately in jiffies rather than in nanoseconds as other times.

This patch removes redundant counter for "time_in_queue" and shows total
time of read, write, discard and flush requests.

Reading /proc/diskstats iterates over all cpus for summing each field.
It's faster to sum all fields in one pass.

Hammering /proc/diskstats with fio shows 2x performance improvement:

fio --name=test --numjobs=$JOBS --filename=/proc/diskstats \
    --size=1k --bs=1k --fallocate=none --create_on_open=1 \
    --time_based=1 --runtime=10 --invalidate=0 --group_report

	  JOBS=1	JOBS=10
Before:	  7k iops	64k iops
After:	 18k iops      120k iops

Also this way code is more compact:

add/remove: 1/0 grow/shrink: 0/2 up/down: 194/-1540 (-1346)
Function                                     old     new   delta
part_stat_read_all                             -     194    +194
diskstats_show                              1344     631    -713
part_stat_show                              1219     392    -827
Total: Before=14966947, After=14965601, chg -0.01%

<title>block: move sysfs methods shared by disks and partitions to genhd.c</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3ad5cee5cd000dc05e6c2410b06fc1d818e7b1e9</id>
<content type='text'>
Move the sysfs _show methods that are used both on the full disk and
partition nodes to genhd.c instead of hiding them in the partitioning
code.  Also move the declaration for these methods to block/blk.h so
that we don't expose them to drivers.
