I noticed that this will happend when root group is offlined:

bfq_pd_offline
  bfq_put_async_queues
   __bfq_put_async_bfqq
    bfq_bfqq_move

I'm not sure if there are other situations. I think bfq_bfqq_move()
is not happening often itself, thus the checking won't affect
performance.

Thanks,
Kuai
