As we agreed, ublk_queue_reinit() will be moved to ublk_ch_release(), when there isn't
any inflight request, which is completed by either ublk server or __ublk_fail_req().

So clearing io->flags isn't related with quisceing device.

UBLK_IO_FLAG_ABORTED is set for the slot, so one req is only ended or
requeued just once.

But we have agreed that ublk_queue_reinit() can be moved to release
handler of /dev/ublkcN.

No, the same rq is just requeued once. Here the point is:

1) reuse previous pattern in ublk_stop_dev(), which is proved as
workable reliably

2) avoid to stay in half-working state forever

3) the behind idea is more simpler.


Thanks.
