PATCH 9 of 8 Sorry for the messed up sequence. There are actually 11 total patches. This patch adds a check for busy_configuring to prevent starting a queue on a drive that may be in the midst of updating, configuring, deleting, etc. This had a test for if the queue was stopped or plugged but that seemed to cause issues and others thought the test unnecessary. Please consider this for inclusion.
