I'm not quite shure that do I understand which bug was addressed for commit db37a34c563b.
AFAIU both bugs mentioned in original patchset was fixed by:
478de3380 ("block, bfq: deschedule empty bfq_queues not referred by any proces")
f718b0932 ( block, bfq: do not plug I/O for bfq_queues with no proc refs)"

So I review commit db37a34c563b as independent one.
It introduces extra reference for bfq_groups via bfqg_and_blkg_get(),
but do we actually need it here?

#IF CONFIG_BFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED is enabled:
bfqd->root_group is holded by bfqd from bfq_init_queue()
other bfq_queue objects are owned by corresponding blkcg from bfq_pd_alloc()
So bfq_queue can not disappear under us.

#IF CONFIG_BFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED is disabled:
we have only one bfqd->root_group object which allocated from bfq_create_group_hierarch()
and bfqg_and_blkg_get() bfqg_and_blkg_put() are noop

Resume: in both cases extra reference is not required, so I continue to
insist that we should revert commit db37a34c563b because it tries to
solve a non existing issue, but introduce the real one.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.
