Kashyap's log shows that contention on tags->lock is increased, that
should be caused by nr_hw_queues iterating. blk_mq_find_and_get_req()
will be run nr_hw_queue times compared with pre-shared-sbitmap, since it
is done before checking rq->mq_hctx.

No, that isn't what I meant, follows the change I suggested:
