Thinking of this issue further, the only reason of synchronizing rcu
in blk_mq_del_queue_tag_set() is because blk_mq_sched_restart() needs
that.
Given we have fixed enough IO hang issues wrt. tag allocation, looks
it is time to remove it now as done in 358a3a6bccb74da9d63a. Otherwise,
not see an easy way to fix the slow probe issue.
