We currently call blk_mq_free_queue() from blk_cleanup_queue() before we unregister the debugfs attributes for that queue in blk_release_queue(). This leaves a window open during which accessing most of the mq debugfs attributes would cause a use-after-free. Additionally, the "state" attribute allows running the queue, which we should not do after the queue has entered the "dead" state. Fix both cases by unregistering the debugfs attributes before freeing queue resources starts.
