rq_qos_add() increments the block_rq_qos static key when a QoS
policy is attached. When a QoS policy is removed via rq_qos_del(),
we must symmetrically decrement the static key. If this removal drops
the last QoS policy from the queue (q->rq_qos becomes NULL), the
static branch can be disabled and the jump label patched to a NOP,
avoiding overhead on the hot path.
This change ensures rq_qos_add()/rq_qos_del() keep the
block_rq_qos static key balanced and prevents leaving the branch
permanently enabled after the last policy is removed.
