block: Relax a check in blk_start_queue()

Browse source 
Calling blk_start_queue() from interrupt context with the queue
lock held and without disabling IRQs, as the skd driver does, is
safe. This patch avoids that loading the skd driver triggers the
following warning:

WARNING: CPU: 11 PID: 1348 at block/blk-core.c:283 blk_start_queue+0x84/0xa0
