Subject: [PATCH] block: bypass blkg_tryget_closest for the root_blkg
References: bsc#1175995,jsc#SLE-15608
Git-commit: a5b97526bf2860fe8306959f19ee428d1f5cc732
Patch-mainline: v5.9-rc1

The root_blkg is only torn down at the very end of removing a queue.
So in the I/O submission path is always has a life reference and we
can just grab another one using blkg_get instead of doing a tryget
and parent walk that won't lead anywhere.
