block: recursive merge requests
In a workload, thread 1 accesses a, a+2, ..., thread 2 accesses a+1, a+3,.... When the requests are flushed to queue, a and a+1 are merged to (a, a+1), a+2 and a+3 too to (a+2, a+3), but (a, a+1) and (a+2, a+3) aren't merged. If we do recursive merge for such interleave access, some workloads throughput get improvement. A recent worload I'm checking on is swap, below change boostes the throughput around 5% ~ 10%.
