block: cleanup the block plug helper functions

It's a bit of a mess currently. task->plug is being cleared and reset in __blk_finish_plug(), and blk_finish_plug() is testing for a NULL plug which cannot happen even from schedule() anymore since it uses blk_needs_flush_plug() to determine whether to call into this function at all. So get rid of some of the cruft. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <[email protected]>
