I haven't had a chance to put it through the proper tests (I no longer
have a hotplug machine), but this is what I'd written if you can give it
a quick look:

Subject: [PATCH] blk-mq: Provide request termination API

A driver that determined hardware contexts backing its request queue
is unable to service new commands, it would have to end those commands
in its IO path. This requires unlikely checks per-IO.

Create a new API that terminates all requests directly rather than
requiring those requests get flushed through the low level driver. This
is safe only if the current request allocation state is unchanging, so
driver must have quiesced and initiated a freeze on its queue, and after
it has reclaimed any in flight requests so that the tag iterator is not
racing with in flux requests. The new API enforces these conditions in
order to successfully terminate requests.
