Subject: [PATCH V2 0/2] blk-mq: some fixes about updating hw queues

Hi Jens

This patch set fixes some defects during update hw queues.

1st patch refactor the blk-mq debugfs and sysfs register during
blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues.

2nd patch change the GFP_KERNEL to GFP_NOIO during blk_mq_realloc_hw_ctxs,

3rd patch try to realloc hctx when this hctx is mapped to a different node.

4th patch should be able to fix the panic reported in follwing link
https://marc.info/?l=linux-block&m=153799465603723&w=2

V2:
 - Newly add 2nd and 3rd patch.
 - Use blk_mq_map_queues when __blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues fallbacks to
   previous nr_hw_queues to avoid driver's .map_queues leak mapping of
   some cpus due the fallback nr_hw_queues.
 - Add Ming's Reviewed-by in 1st patch.
