Subject: [PATCH] blk-mq: fix possible creation failure for 'debugfs_dir'

'q->debugfs_dir' is created in blk_register_queue(), however, it's not
removed in blk_unregister_queue() and is delayed to blk_release_queue().
Thus it's possible that del_gendisk() is done and the old 'debugfs_dir'
is not removed yet, and in the mean time blk_register_queue() is called
for the new device with the same name. In this case, kernel will
compalin about creation failure for 'debugfs_dir' like following:

debugfs: Directory 'nullb1' with parent 'block' already present!

Fix the problem by moving forward the removal of 'debgfs_dir' to
blk_unregister_queue().
