Subject: [PATCH 3/4] block: null_blk: fix queue leak inside removing device

When queue_mode is NULL_Q_MQ and null_blk is being removed,
blk_cleanup_queue() isn't called to cleanup queue, so the
queue allocated won't be freed.

This patch calls blk_cleanup_queue() for MQ to drain all
pending requests first and release the reference counter
of queue kobject, then blk_mq_free_queue() will be called
in queue kobject's release handler when queue kobject's
reference counter drops to zero.
