Tejun Heo 0a30288da1 blk-mq, percpu_ref: implement a kludge for SCSI blk-mq stall during probe
blk-mq uses percpu_ref for its usage counter which tracks the number
of in-flight commands and used to synchronously drain the queue on
freeze.  percpu_ref shutdown takes measureable wallclock time as it
involves a sched RCU grace period.  This means that draining a blk-mq
takes measureable wallclock time.  One would think that this shouldn't
matter as queue shutdown should be a rare event which takes place
asynchronously w.r.t. userland.

Unfortunately, SCSI probing involves synchronously setting up and then
tearing down a lot of request_queues back-to-back for non-existent
LUNs.  This means that SCSI probing may take more than ten seconds
when scsi-mq is used.

This will be properly fixed by implementing a mechanism to keep
q->mq_usage_counter in atomic mode till genhd registration; however,
that involves rather big updates to percpu_ref which is difficult to
apply late in the devel cycle (v3.17-rc6 at the moment).  As a
stop-gap measure till the proper fix can be implemented in the next
cycle, this patch introduces __percpu_ref_kill_expedited() and makes
blk_mq_freeze_queue() use it.  This is heavy-handed but should work
for testing the experimental SCSI blk-mq implementation.
