After digging from vmcore, I found that the queue is cleaned
up(blk_cleanup_queue() is done) and tag set is
freed(blk_mq_free_tag_set() is done).

There are two problems here:

1) blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queues() will only be called from
__blk_mq_do_dispatch_sched() if e->type->ops.has_work() return true.
This seems impossible because blk_cleanup_queue() is done, and there
should be no io. Commit ddc25c86b466 ("block, bfq: make bfq_has_work()
more accurate") fix the problem in bfq. And currently ohter schedulers
don't have such problem.

2) 'hctx->run_work' still exists after blk_cleanup_queue().
blk_mq_cancel_work_sync() is called from blk_cleanup_queue() to cancel
all the 'run_work'. However, there is no guarantee that new 'run_work'
won't be queued after that(and before blk_mq_exit_queue() is done).

The first problem is not the root cause, it will only increase the
probability of the second problem. this patch fix the second problem by
checking the 'QUEUE_FLAG_DEAD' before queuing 'hctx->run_work', and
using 'queue_lock' to synchronize queuing new work and cacelling the
old work.
