Please consider changing the description of this patch into something like
the following: "The previous patch in this series changed the behavior of
blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter() from iterating over all allocated tags into
iterating over started requests only. Leave out the code from
blk_mq_rq_inflight() that became superfluous because of this change."

Thanks,

Bart.
