While "block: don't use blocking queue entered for recursive bio submits" was
already applied, syzbot is still reporting a hung task with same signature but
different trace.

Is it OK to call [__]loop_update_dio() between blk_mq_freeze_queue() and
blk_mq_unfreeze_queue(), for vfs_fsync() from __loop_update_dio() is calling
blk_queue_enter() after blk_mq_freeze_queue() started blocking blk_queue_enter()
by caling atomic_inc_return() and percpu_ref_kill() ?
