cfq-iosched: Remove the check for same cfq group from allow_merge
o allow_merge() already checks if submitting task is pointing to same cfqq as rq has been queued in. If everything is fine, we should not be having a task in one cgroup and having a pointer to cfqq in other cgroup. Well I guess in some situations it can happen and that is, when a random IO queue has been moved into root cgroup for group_isolation=0. In this case, tasks's cgroup/group is different from where actually cfqq is, but this is intentional and in this case merging should be allowed. The second situation is where due to close cooperator patches, multiple processes can be sharing a cfqq. If everything implemented right, we should not end up in a situation where tasks from different processes in different groups are sharing the same cfqq as we allow merging of cooperating queues only if they are in same group.
