bfq: don't check active group if bfq.weight is not changed
Now the group scheduling in BFQ depends on the check of active group,
but in most cases group scheduling is not used and the checking
of active group will cause bfq_asymmetric_scenario() and its caller
bfq_better_to_idle() to always return true, so the throughput
will be impacted if the workload doesn't need idle (e.g. random rw)

To fix that, adding check in bfq_io_set_weight_legacy() and
bfq_pd_init() to check whether or not group scheduling is used
(a non-default weight is used). If not, there is no need
to check active group.
