The goal of my proposal was to address the race between running the queue and
adding requests back to the dispatch queue only. Regarding the I/O hangs that
can occur if a block driver returns BLK_STS_RESOURCE: since all of these can
be addressed by inserting blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queue() calls in the affected
block drivers I prefer to modify the block drivers instead of making the
blk-mq core even more complicated.

Thanks,

Bart.
