Title:
  Setting I/O scheduler to 'none' causes error in oracular

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in linux-gcp package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  With Oracular linux-gcp kernel version 6.11.0-1002.2, running the 
google-guest-agent causes an error. The guest-agent sets the I/O scheduler to 
'none', causing errors such as below:

  ```
  2024-10-07T09:24:03.262548+00:00 oracular-old-gga-test 
google_guest_agent[1125]: panic: invalid return from write: got 256 from a 
write of 4
  ```

  With strace, we can also see that the return value of write is
  unexpected:

  [pid  3127] write(7, "none", 4)         = 256

  This is breaking provision of GCP cloud images, so bump it to
  Critical.

  [Fix]

  Fix commit is e3accac1a976e65491a9b9fba82ce8ddbd3d2389 ("block: Fix
  elv_iosched_local_module handling of "none" scheduler").

  [How to test]

  Apply the fix, rebuild the kernel and try to change scheduler in
  sysfs, e.g.:

  # echo "none" > /sys/devices/virtual/block/loop1/queue/scheduler
  # echo $?
  0

  [Regression potential]

  Upstream clean cherry-pick, already part of v6.11.2.
