soft lockup still can be observed easily with patch d4acf3650c7c(
block: Make blk_mq_delay_kick_requeue_list() rerun the queue at a quiet time),
but no hard lockup.

With the patchset of 'blk-mq-sched: improve SCSI-MQ performance', hard
lockup can be observed following some failure log:

	[  269.277653] device-mapper: multipath: blk_get_request() returned -11 - requeuing
	[  269.321244] device-mapper: multipath: blk_get_request() returned -11 - requeuing
	...
	[  273.421688] scsi host2: SRP abort called
	[  273.444577] scsi host2: Sending SRP abort for tag 0x6007e
	[  273.673871] scsi host2: Null scmnd for RSP w/tag 0x0000000006007e received on ch 6 / QP 0x30
	...
	[  274.372110] device-mapper: multipath: blk_get_request() returned -11 - requeuing
	[  278.658671] scsi host2: SRP abort called
	[  278.690630] scsi host2: SRP abort called
	[  278.717634] scsi host2: SRP abort called
	[  278.745629] scsi host2: SRP abort called
	[  279.083227] multipath_clone_and_map: 1092 callbacks suppressed
	....
	[  296.210503] scsi host2: SRP reset_device called
	....
	[  303.784287] NMI watchdog: Watchdog detected hard LOCKUP on cpu 10

The trick thing is that both hard lockup and soft lockup share
one same stack trace.

Another question, I don't understand why request is allocated with
GFP_ATOMIC in multipath_clone_and_map(), looks it shouldn't be
necessary.
