I'm not sure that's the right approach. I think it is the responsibility of
the block layer to handle races between completion handling and timeout
handling and that this is not the responsibility of e.g. a block driver. If
you look at e.g. the legacy block layer then you will see that it takes care
of this race and that legacy block drivers do not have to worry about this
race.
