quiescing is always done in error handling, and freeze is actually
not a must, and it is easier to cause race by calling freeze & unfreeze
from different contexts.

But yes, unquiesce should have been done after exiting error handling, or
simply do it in nvme_unquiesce_io_queues().

And the following patch should cover all these hangs:
