block: don't grab elevator lock during queue initialization
->elevator_lock depends on queue freeze lock, see block/blk-sysfs.c.
queue freeze lock depends on fs_reclaim.
So don't grab elevator lock during queue initialization which needs to
call kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL), and we can cut the dependency between
->elevator_lock and fs_reclaim, then the lockdep warning can be killed.
This way is safe because elevator setting isn't ready to run during
queue initialization.
There isn't such issue in __blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues() because
memalloc_noio_save() is called before acquiring elevator lock.
Fixes the following lockdep warning:
