Yes, because submitting IOs can be blocked in block layer since there may be:
- limitation of some resources, e.g. request number.
- IO throttle
Holding a global mutex lock in the path is not good idea, as it may cause
potential hungtask or concurrency performance regression.

So I add this patch to relief impacting of global mutex.

Thanks,
