block: don't call blk_drain_queue() if elevator is not up
blk_cleanup_queue() may be called before elevator is set up on a
queue which triggers the following oops.
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)

Fix it by making blk_cleanup_queue() check whether q->elevator is set
up before invoking blk_drain_queue.
