Do I understand correctly the "long time" here is
outstanding_IO_size/throttled_bandwidth? Or are you getting at some
other cause/longer time?

You've replaced the rcu_read_lock() with the queue lock but...

...you also need the rcu_read_lock() here since you may encounter a
(descendant) blkcg that's removed concurrently.

(I may miss some consequences of doing this under the queue_lock so if
the concurrent removal is ruled out, please make a comment about it.)
