Subject: [PATCH 3.16 033/370] dm rq: fix a race condition in rq_completed()

3.16.42-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

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

commit d15bb3a6467e102e60d954aadda5fb19ce6fd8ec upstream.

It is required to hold the queue lock when calling blk_run_queue_async()
to avoid that a race between blk_run_queue_async() and
blk_cleanup_queue() is triggered.
