If we reset the virtio-blk device before the requests already dispatched
to the virtio-blk driver from the block layer are finised, we will stuck
in blk_cleanup_queue() and the remove will fail.

blk_cleanup_queue() calls blk_drain_queue() to drain all requests queued
before DEAD marking. However it will never success if the device is
already stopped. We'll have q->in_flight[] > 0, so the drain will not
finish.

How to reproduce the race:
1. hot-plug a virtio-blk device
2. keep reading/writing the device in guest
3. hot-unplug while the device is busy serving I/O

Changes in v2:
- Drop req_in_flight
- Use virtqueue_detach_unused_buf to get request dispatched to driver
