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.
