Seems you didn't address the comment in the following link:

	https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/10331543-9e45-ae63-8cdb-17e5a2a3b7ef@huawei.com/

The request to be freed may still be refered in another path, such as blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter
or blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter(), and cmpxchg() doesn't drain/wait for other refers.

Thanks,
Ming
