When I moved the blk-mq debugging information to debugfs, I didn't
realize that blktrace also created directories in debugfs that
conflicted with the blk-mq directories. This series fixes that.

Patch 1 adds a new debugfs helper needed for patch 6. Greg, could I get
an ack on that if it makes sense? Jens and I went back and forth on this
for a little while, but patch 6 has more of the rationale on why we
decided that this approach was the cleanest.

Patches 2 and 3 are cleanups.

Patch 4 is the first part of the fix, making blk-mq and blktrace use the
same top-level "block" directory.

Patches 5 and 6 make blk-mq and blktrace play nicely with each other
w.r.t. the debugfs "block/$dev" directories.

I tested this with multiple configurations, so hopefully I didn't mess
that up this time.

Applies to for-4.11/block.
Applied with Greg's ack on the first patch, thanks Omar.
