Hello Jens,
Thanks! This infrastructure was essential while analyzing queue stalls.
After I had posted this series I improved and extended the blk-mq debugfs
functionality further. Please consider including the patch below in v4.12.
Thanks,
Bart.

Subject: [PATCH] blk-mq: Two fixes for the code that exports the queue state
Remove the array entry for QUEUE_FLAG_RESTART since that flag has
been removed after the blk-mq-debugfs patch that introduced this
array entry was posted.
Avoid that querying the queue state of a dead queue triggers a
kernel crash.
