SO I turned the above into a blktest but have found some shortcommings
of my bash skills. Maybe you or Omar has a soution for it:

Subject: [PATCH blktests] block/013: add test for scsi_device queue starvation

Add a test for Ming Lei's patch titled "SCSI: run queue if SCSI device
queue isn't ready and queue is idle"

Signed-off-by: Johannes Thumshirn <jthumshirn@...e.de>

This test case has two shortcommings, which need to be addressed I'm
just lacking a bit of the shell magic to address them properly.

1) Testing without the patch applied hangs the test forever as it
   doesn't get killed after a specific timeout (I think this should be
   solved in a common function).
2) It has a nasty sleep at it's end to wait for scsi_debug's refcounts
   to drop to 0 before removing the module or removing will fail and thus
   the test case. This as well should be solved in a more generic way.
