The nr_active counter continues to increase over time which causes the
blk_mq_get_tag to hang until the thread is rescheduled to a different
core despite there are still tags available.

The issue is caused by 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 latter
decreases the active request after req_ref_put_and_test().

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