Indeed, good spotting with the ordering bug Ming! I agree with Kemeng
though that set_current_state() called from sbitmap_prepare_to_wait() is
guaranteed to contain a memory barrier and thus reads from
__blk_mq_get_tag() are guaranteed to be ordered properly wrt addition into
the waitqueue.

So only blk_mq_mark_tag_wait() is vulnerable to the problem you have
spotted AFAICT.
