Dmitry Monakhov 40d47c155e block,bfq: Skip tracing hooks if possible
In most cases blk_tracing is not active, but  bfq_log_bfqq macro
generate pid_str unconditionally, which result in significant overhead.

## Test
modprobe null_blk
echo bfq > /sys/block/nullb0/queue/scheduler
fio --name=t --ioengine=libaio --direct=1 --filename=/dev/nullb0 \
   --runtime=30 --time_based=1 --rw=write --iodepth=128 --bs=4k

# Results
|        | baseline | w/ patch | gain |
| iops   | 113.19K  | 126.42K  | +11% |

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
