Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.20 77/77] Revert "block: cover another queue enter recursion via BIO_QUEUE_ENTERED"

From: Jens Axboe <axboe@...nel.dk>

[ Upstream commit 947b7ac135b16aa60f9141ff72bd494eda0edb5e ]

We can't touch a bio after ->make_request_fn(), for all we know it could
already have been completed by the time this function returns.

This reverts commit 698cef173983b086977e633e46476e0f925ca01e.
