Hi John,

I propose to change the order in which blk_mq_sched_free_requests(q) and
blk_mq_debugfs_unregister(q) are called. Today blk_mq_sched_free_requests(q)
is called by blk_cleanup_queue() before blk_put_queue() is called.
blk_put_queue() calls blk_release_queue() if the last reference is dropped.
blk_release_queue() calls blk_mq_debugfs_unregister(). I prefer removing the
debugfs attributes earlier over modifying the tag iteration functions
because I think removing the debugfs attributes earlier is less risky.
Although this will make it harder to debug lockups that happen while
removing a request queue, kernel developers who are analyzing such an issue
can undo this change in their development kernel tree.

Thanks,

Bart.
