If running sync IO, preempt is disabled. You can't just put a 10 second
delay there. Wouldn't you hit a "scheduling while atomic" bug instead?
If blk-mq is running the h/w context from its work queue, that might
be a different issue. Maybe we can change the "cancel_delayed_work" to
"cancel_delayed_work_sync" in blk_mq_stop_hw_queues.
If there's still a window where blk-mq can insert a request after the
driver requested to stop queues, I think we should try to close it with
the block layer.
