Commit 4c6994806f70 ("blk-throttle: fix race between blkcg_bio_issue_check() and cgroup_rmdir()")
changed a loop inside blkcg_css_offline() from "while (!hlist_empty(list))"
to "hlist_for_each_entry(list)" as the old condition wouldn't work anymore
due to list elements no longer being removed inside the loop.
However, this means that the code effectively lost an automatic retry in
case of queue_lock locking failure.
Let's put the lock retry back there.
