The check for ioq == efqd->active_queue and the call to
elv_reset_active_ioq() seem to be unnecessary. This gets called from
elv_del_ioq_busy() which has 2 callers which:
- either explicitly check for ioq != efqd->active_queue
- or call elv_reset_active_ioq() right before invoking this function

This was needed earlier as the io_ioq_move() function didn't fall in
one of the 2 categories above. This has been done away with the ref
counting patch, AFAICT.
