Remove the acquisition and release of q->elevator_lock in the
blkg_conf_open_bdev_frozen() and blkg_conf_exit_frozen() functions. The
elevator lock is no longer needed in these code paths since commit
78c271344b6f ("block: move wbt_enable_default() out of queue freezing
from sched ->exit()") which introduces `disk->rqos_state_mutex` for
protecting wbt state change, and not necessary to abuse elevator_lock
for this purpose.

This change helps to solve the lockdep warning reported from Yu Kuai[1].

Pass blktests/throtl with lockdep enabled.
