Subject: [PATCH -next 4/4] block/rq_qos: fail rq_qos_add() after rq_qos_exit()

From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@...wei.com>

rq_qos_add() can still succeed after rq_qos_exit() is done, which will
cause memory leak because such rq_qos will never be removed.

t1                      t2
// configure iocost
blk_iocost_init
			//remove device
			del_gendisk
			 rq_qos_exit
			 // done nothing because rq_qos doesn't exist
 rq_qos_add
 // will succeed, and rq_qos won't be removed

Fix the problem by setting q->rq_qos to a special value in
rq_qos_exit(), and check the value in rq_qos_add().
