Yes, this patch doesn't fix any bug. Since we will let the request to be drained
for shutdown case to avoid to be stuck, why not do it in nvme_dev_disable and 
then quiesce the queue again. In nvme_dev_disable, we unquiesce the queues finally,
it looks really something odd. And always give me a feeling that something is still
ongoing and not completed....It looks like something is leaking.... ;)

Why not we complete it in nvme_dev_disable ?

Thanks
