Now freeing hw queue resource is moved to hctx's release handler, we don't need to worry about the possible race between blk_cleanup_queue and run queue. So don't grab the queue usage counter before run queue in scsi_end_request(). This is basically revert of 8dc765d438f1 ("SCSI: fix queue cleanup race before queue initialization is done").
