So you are reverting the patch below? Thank you very much.

commit 1c23484c355ec360ca2f37914f8a4802c6baeead

    dm mpath: do not lock up a CPU with requeuing activity
    
    When using the block layer in single queue mode, get_request()
    returns ERR_PTR(-EAGAIN) if the queue is dying and the REQ_NOWAIT
    flag has been passed to get_request(). Avoid that the kernel
    reports soft lockup complaints in this case due to continuous
    requeuing activity.
    
    Fixes: 7083abbbf ("dm mpath: avoid that path removal can trigger an infinite loop")
