[PATCH v3 2/3] nvme: avoid to use blk_mq_abort_requeue_list()

NVMe may add request into requeue list simply and not kick off the
requeue if hw queues are stopped. Then blk_mq_abort_requeue_list()
is called in both nvme_kill_queues() and nvme_ns_remove() for
dealing with this issue.

Unfortunately blk_mq_abort_requeue_list() is absolutely a
race maker, for example, one request may be requeued during
the aborting. So this patch just calls blk_mq_kick_requeue_list() in
nvme_kill_queues() to handle this issue like what nvme_start_queues()
does. Now all requests in requeue list when queues are stopped will be
handled by blk_mq_kick_requeue_list() when queues are restarted, either
in nvme_start_queues() or in nvme_kill_queues().
