Well I've rebased dm-4.16 ontop of v4.15-rc5.  If you udate to latest
dm-4.16 and look at the following diff it is pretty clear that these
changes will not compromise dm-mpath's "mq" mode (which you're using):

git diff 8d47e65948ddea4398892946d9e50778a316b397^..e8f74a0f00113d74ac18d6de13096f9e2f95618a -- drivers/md/dm-mpath.c

I see no reason why you'd hit hangs with requests lingering on the requeue_list
