Subject: [PATCH v4 6/8] nvme-fc: fix controller reset hang during traffic

From: James Smart <jsmart2021@...il.com>

commit fe35ec58f0d3 ("block: update hctx map when use multiple maps")
exposed an issue where we may hang trying to wait for queue freeze
during I/O. We call blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues which may attempt to freeze
the queue. However we never started queue freeze when starting the
reset, which means that we have inflight pending requests that entered the
queue that we will not complete once the queue is quiesced.

So start a freeze before we quiesce the queue, and unfreeze the queue
after we successfully connected the I/O queues (the unfreeze is already
present in the code). blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues will be called only
after we are sure that the queue was already frozen.

This follows to how the pci driver handles resets.

This patch added logic introduced in commit 9f98772ba307 "nvme-rdma: fix
controller reset hang during traffic".
