Actually what we want to get from blk_mq_quiesce_queue()
isn't only to wait for completion of all ongooing .queue_rq().
In the typical context of canceling requests, we need to
make sure that the following is done in the dispatch path
before starting to cancel requests:
- failed dispatched request is freeed
- busy dispatched request is requeued, and the STARTED
flag is cleared
