Once a queue is quiesced, it's not supposed to have any elvpriv data or
icq's, and elevator switching depends on that.  Request alloc path
followed the rule for elvpriv data but forgot apply it to icq's
leading to the following crash during elevator switch. Fix it by not
allocating icq's if ELVPRIV is not set for the request.
