Subject: [PATCH] block: Fix lock unbalance caused by lock disconnect

Commit 777eb1bf15b8532c396821774bf6451e563438f5 disconnects externally
supplied queue_lock before blk_drain_queue(). This would introduce lock
unbalance because theads which have taken the external lock might unlock
the internal lock in the during the queue drain.

This patch fixes this by disconnecting the lock after the queue drain.

 =====================================
 [ BUG: bad unlock balance detected! ]
 3.4.0+ #288 Not tainted
 -------------------------------------
 fio/17706 is trying to release lock (&(&q->__queue_lock)->rlock) at:
 [<ffffffff81329372>] blk_queue_bio+0x2a2/0x380
 but there are no more locks to release!

 other info that might help us debug this:
 1 lock held by fio/17706:
  #0:  (&(&vblk->lock)->rlock){......}, at: [<ffffffff81327f1a>]
 get_request_wait+0x19a/0x250
