Tejun Heo 8f11b3e99a block: make barrier completion more robust
Barrier completion had the following assumptions.

* start_ordered() couldn't finish the whole sequence properly.  If all
  actions are to be skipped, q->ordseq is set correctly but the actual
  completion was never triggered thus hanging the barrier request.

* Drain completion in elv_complete_request() assumed that there's
  always at least one request in the queue when drain completes.

Both assumptions are true but these assumptions need to be removed to
improve empty barrier implementation.  This patch makes the following
changes.

* Make start_ordered() use blk_ordered_complete_seq() to mark skipped
  steps complete and notify __elv_next_request() that it should fetch
  the next request if the whole barrier has completed inside
  start_ordered().

* Make drain completion path in elv_complete_request() check whether
  the queue is empty.  Empty queue also indicates drain completion.

* While at it, convert 0/1 return from blk_do_ordered() to false/true.
