Even if we have no waiters on any of the sbitmap_queue wait states, we still have to loop every entry to check. We do this for every IO, so the cost adds up. Shift a bit of the cost to the slow path, when we actually have waiters. Wrap prepare_to_wait_exclusive() and finish_wait(), so we can maintain an internal count of how many are currently active. Then we can simply check this count in sbq_wake_ptr() and not have to loop if we don't have any sleepers. Convert the two users of sbitmap with waiting, blk-mq-tag and iSCSI.

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.
