OK, so it's definitely leaking, but only partially - the requests are freed, yet the active count isn't decremented. I wonder if we're losing that flag along the way. It's numbered high enough that a cast to int will drop it, perhaps the cmd_flags is being copied/passed around as an int and not the appropriate u64? We've had bugs like that before.

Is the nr_active count correct prior to starting the mkfs test? Trying
to see if someone is calling "blk_mq_alloc_tag_set()" twice on the same
set. It might be good to add a WARN if this is detected anyway.
