Subject: [PATCH 4.9 10/32] blk-mq: Allow blocking queue tag iter callbacks

From: Keith Busch <keith.busch@...el.com>

commit 530ca2c9bd6949c72c9b5cfc330cb3dbccaa3f5b upstream.

A recent commit runs tag iterator callbacks under the rcu read lock,
but existing callbacks do not satisfy the non-blocking requirement.
The commit intended to prevent an iterator from accessing a queue that's
being modified. This patch fixes the original issue by taking a queue
reference instead of reading it, which allows callbacks to make blocking
calls.

Fixes: f5bbbbe4d6357 ("blk-mq: sync the update nr_hw_queues with blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter")
