block: fix lost bio for plug enabled bio based device

With the following two conditions, bio will be lost:

1) blk plug is not enabled, for example, __blkdev_direct_IO_simple() and
__blkdev_direct_IO_async();
2) bio plug is enabled, for example write IO for raid1/raid10 while
bitmap is enabled;

Root cause is that blk_finish_plug() will add the bio to
curent->bio_list, while such bio will not be handled:

__submit_bio_noacct
 current->bio_list = bio_list_on_stack;
 blk_start_plug

 do {
  dm_submit_bio
   md_handle_request
    raid10_write_request
     -> generate new bio for underlying disks
     raid1_add_bio_to_plug -> bio is added to plug
 } while ((bio = bio_list_pop(&bio_list_on_stack[0])))
 -> previous bio are all handled

 blk_finish_plug
  raid10_unplug
   raid1_submit_write
    submit_bio_noacct
     if (current->bio_list)
      bio_list_add(&current->bio_list[0], bio)
      -> add new bio

 current->bio_list = NULL
 -> new bio is lost

Fix the problem by moving the plug into the while loop, so that
current->bio_list will still be handled after blk_finish_plug().

By the way, enable plug for raid1/raid10 in this case will also prevent
delay IO handling into daemon thread, which should also improve IO
performance.
