Subject: [PATCH 4.4 152/192] block: Fix race triggered by blk_set_queue_dying()

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@...disk.com>

commit 1b856086813be9371929b6cc62045f9fd470f5a0 upstream.

blk_set_queue_dying() can be called while another thread is
submitting I/O or changing queue flags, e.g. through dm_stop_queue().
Hence protect the QUEUE_FLAG_DYING flag change with locking.
