After ublk_wait_tagset_rqs_idle() returns, there can't be any
pending requests in fallback wq or task work, can there?

monitor work will provide forward progress in case of not applying
user recovery.

Please take a look at the delta patch I just sent, which is supposed to be
simpler for addressing this corner case.
