Maybe I'm missing something, but I'm not sure how that would even work.

We need a q_usage_counter ref when doing all the submissions checks
(limits, bounce, etc) early in blk_mq_sunmit_bio, and that one should be
taken using the mormal bio_queue_enter patch to do the right thing on
nowait submissions, when the queue is already frozen, etc.  What
is the benefit of not just keeping that references vs releasing it
for all but the first bio just so that we need to grab another
new reference at the actual submission time?
