commit a347c7ad8edf4c5685154f3fdc3c12fc1db800ba upstream.

It is not allowed to reinit q->tag_set_list list entry while RCU grace
period has not completed yet, otherwise the following soft lockup in
blk_mq_sched_restart() happens:

Meanwhile another context frees other queue but with the same set of
shared tags:

What happened is the following:

1. There are several MQ queues with shared tags.
2. One queue is about to be freed and now task is in
blk_mq_del_queue_tag_set().
3. Other CPU is in blk_mq_sched_restart() and loops over all queues in
tag list in order to find hctx to restart.

Because linked list entry was modified in blk_mq_del_queue_tag_set()
without proper waiting for a grace period, blk_mq_sched_restart()
never ends, spining in list_for_each_entry_rcu_rr(), thus soft lockup.

Fix is simple: reinit list entry after an RCU grace period elapsed.
