This patch looks fine, but please add words about why this way fixes the issue
with fixes tag:

- the difference between blk_mq_free_request() and blk_mq_end_request_batch(),
wrt. when to call __blk_mq_dec_active_requests(), the former does it
before calling req_ref_put_and_test(), and the later decreases active
request after req_ref_put_and_test().

- Fixes: f794f3351f26 ("block: add support for blk_mq_end_request_batch()")

Once the above is done, feel free to add:
