Currently, blk_throtl_bio() issues the passed in bio directly if it's within limits of its associated tg (throtl_grp). This behavior becomes incorrect with hierarchy support as the bio should be accounted to and throttled by the ancestor throtl_grps too.
This patch makes the direct issue path of blk_throtl_bio() to loop until it reaches the top-level service_queue or gets throttled. If the former, the bio can be issued directly; otherwise, it gets queued at the first layer it was above limits. As tg->parent_sq is always the top-level service queue currently, this patch in itself doesn't make any behavior differences.
