[PATCH] Add blk_start_queueing() helper

CFQ implements this on its own now, but it's really block layer
knowledge. Tells a device queue to start dispatching requests to
the driver, taking care to unplug if needed. Also fixes the issue
where as/cfq will invoke a stopped queue, which we really don't
want.
