Hi John,

Thanks for the clarification. I want to take back my suggestion about
adding rcu_read_lock() / rcu_read_unlock() in blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter()
since it is not allowed to sleep inside an RCU read-side critical
section, since blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter() is used in request timeout
handling and since there may be blk_mq_ops.timeout implementations that
sleep.

Ming's suggestion to serialize blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter() and
blk_mq_free_rqs() looks interesting to me.

Thanks,

Bart.
