[PATCH v3 1/3] nvme: use blk_mq_start_hw_queues() in nvme_kill_queues()

[Ming Lei]

Inside nvme_kill_queues(), we have to start hw queues for
draining requests in sw queues, .dispatch list and requeue list,
so use blk_mq_start_hw_queues() instead of blk_mq_start_stopped_hw_queues()
which only run queues if queues are stopped, but the queues may have
been started already, for example nvme_start_queues() is called in reset work
function.

blk_mq_start_hw_queues() run hw queues in current context, instead
of running asynchronously like before. Given nvme_kill_queues() is
run from either remove context or reset worker context, both are fine
to run hw queue directly. And the mutex of namespaces_mutex isn't a
problem too becasue nvme_start_freeze() runs hw queue in this way
already.

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

[Ming Lei]

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().
