scsi: block: Improve ioprio value validity checks
The introduction of the macro IOPRIO_PRIO_LEVEL() in commit eca20409 ("scsi: block: ioprio: Clean up interface definition") results in an iopriority level to always be masked using the macro IOPRIO_LEVEL_MASK, and thus to the kernel always seeing an acceptable value for an I/O priority level when checked in ioprio_check_cap(). Before this patch, this function would return an error for some (but not all) invalid values for a level valid range of [0..7]. Restore and improve the detection of invalid priority levels by introducing the inline function ioprio_value() to check an ioprio class, level and hint value before combining these fields into a single value to be used with ioprio_set() or AIOs. If an invalid value for the class, level or hint of an ioprio is detected, ioprio_value() returns an ioprio using the class IOPRIO_CLASS_INVALID, indicating an invalid value and causing ioprio_check_cap() to return -EINVAL.
