I thought that throttled bios will be canceled by 'tg->disptime = jiffies - 1;'
and the following dispatch schedule.

But looks it isn't enough, since tg_update_disptime() updates
->disptime. However,
this problem can be solved easily by not updating ->disptime in case that we are
canceling.

Firstly ->queue_lock is held by blk_throtl_cancel_bios(), so no new bios
will be throttled.

Also if we don't update ->disptime, any new bios throttled after releasing
->queue_lock will be dispatched soon.
