Subject: [PATCH 2/2] blk-mq: start to freeze queue just after setting dying

Before commit 780db2071a(blk-mq: decouble blk-mq freezing
from generic bypassing), the dying flag is checked before
entering queue, and Tejun converts the checking into .mq_freeze_depth,
and assumes the counter is increased just after dying flag
is set. Unfortunately we doesn't do that in blk_set_queue_dying().

This patch calls blk_mq_freeze_queue_start() for blk-mq in
blk_set_queue_dying(), so that we can block new I/O coming
once the queue is set as dying.

Given blk_set_queue_dying() is always called in remove path
of block device, and queue will be cleaned up later, we don't
need to worry about undo of the counter.
