Adding an mfence to every ublk I/O would be really unfortunate. Memory
barriers are very expensive in a system with a lot of CPUs. Why can't
we rely on blk_mq_quiesce_queue() to prevent new requests from being
queued? Is the bug that ublk_uring_cmd_cancel_fn() alls
ublk_start_cancel() (which calls blk_mq_quiesce_queue()), but
ublk_cancel_dev() does not?

Best,
