The blk_mq_sched_bio_merge() just wrap the __blk_mq_sched_bio_merge(), and
no other places will use __blk_mq_sched_bio_merge(). Thus we can combine
these 2 similar functions into one function.

I think the idea was to avoid the function call for the nomerges fast
path.  Not sure if that is really worth it.

Um, no places will use __blk_mq_sched_bio_merge(), not sure if it is a
good choice we still keep an unused and similar function?

Thanks for all your good suggestion.
