Passthrough(pt) request shouldn't be queued to scheduler, especially some schedulers(such as bfq) supposes that req->bio is always available and blk-cgroup can be retrieved via bio. Sometimes pt request could be part of error handling, so it is better to always queue it into hctx->dispatch directly. Fix this issue by queuing pt request from plug list to hctx->dispatch directly.
