The sort insert is the one that goes to the IO scheduler. With
the SORT_MERGE addition, we could bypass IO scheduler setup
but still ask the IO scheduler to insert the request. This would
cause an oops on switching IO schedulers through the sysfs
interface, unless the disk just happened to be idle while it
occured.
