No, this lockdep warning isn't related with the above commit, which
caused another regression, but fixed by commit d578c770c852
("block: avoid calling blkg_free() in atomic context"). Looks syzbot
can't recognize difference between the two different issues.

This specific issue of '[syzbot] possible deadlock in throtl_pending_timer_fn',
is actually introduced by commit ("27029b4b18aa blkcg: fix memleak for iolatency").

blk_throtl_exit() isn't safe to be called before blkg_destroy_all().

The following change should avoid the issue:
