[PATCH 02/21] blk-mq: Fix a potential NULL pointer assignment to hctx tags

If number of used hardware queues is dynamically decreased
then tags corresponding to the newly unused queues are freed.

If previously unused hardware queues are then reused again
they will start referring the previously freed tags.
