    This patch implements "application-hints" which is a way the issuing
    application can notify the scheduler on the priority of its request.
    This is done by setting the io-priority of the request.
    This patch reuses an already existing mechanism of io-priorities developed
    for CFQ. Please refer to kernel/Documentation/block/ioprio.txt for
    usage example and explanations.
