Thanks Igor, my previous proposal was a bit flawed, and this patch looks
good. For the future, you should adjust your commit log formatting to
use the more standard 72 character width.

The fix should go in for the next rc for sure. Maybe longer term, if
a request_queue has an active reference, it might make sense to have
blk-mq's APIs consistently handle these sorts of things.
