block, bfq: choose the last bfqq from merge chain in bfq_setup_cooperator()


Consider the following merge chain:

Process 1       Process 2       Process 3	Process 4
 (BIC1)          (BIC2)          (BIC3)		 (BIC4)
  Λ                |               |               |
   \--------------\ \-------------\ \-------------\|
                   V               V		   V
  bfqq1--------->bfqq2---------->bfqq3----------->bfqq4

IO from Process 1 will get bfqf2 from BIC1 first, then
bfq_setup_cooperator() will found bfqq2 already merged to bfqq3 and then
handle this IO from bfqq3. However, the merge chain can be much deeper
and bfqq3 can be merged to other bfqq as well.

Fix this problem by iterating to the last bfqq in
bfq_setup_cooperator().
