    init, block: try to load default elevator module early during boot · bb813f4c
    Tejun Heo authored
    This patch adds default module loading and uses it to load the default
    block elevator.  During boot, it's called right after initramfs or
    initrd is made available and right before control is passed to
    userland.  This ensures that as long as the modules are available in
    the usual places in initramfs, initrd or the root filesystem, the
    default modules are loaded as soon as possible.
    
    This will replace the on-demand elevator module loading from elevator
    init path.
    
    v2: Fixed build breakage when !CONFIG_BLOCK.  Reported by kbuild test
        robot.
