The problem is that the commit 75ad23b expects that we hold the queue
lock for __blk_queue_free_tags, blk_queue_free_tags and
blk_queue_init_tags but we haven't.

The simple fix is using queue_flag_set/clear_unlocked for them, then
it should work as before. However, it would be better to hold the
queue lock for blk_queue_free_tags and blk_queue_init_tags (we can
hold the queue lock in scsi_activate_tcq and scsi_deactivate_tcq).
