Replace the spinlock in blk_mq_find_and_get_req() with an SRCU read lock
around the tag iterators.

This is done by:

- Holding the SRCU read lock in blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter(),
blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter(), and blk_mq_hctx_has_requests().

- Removing the now-redundant tags->lock from blk_mq_find_and_get_req().

This change improves performance by replacing a spinlock with a more
scalable SRCU lock, and fixes lockup issue in scsi_host_busy() in case of
shost->host_blocked.

Meantime it becomes possible to use blk_mq_in_driver_rw() for io
accounting.

While this looks good, I do wonder what happened to the 'fq' srcu.
Don't we need to insert an srcu_read_lock() when we're trying to
access it?

That is exactly the srcu read lock added in this patch.


Ah, indeed. Misread the patch.
