But commit 0a2efafbb1c7 ("blk-mq: Always complete remote completions requests 
in softirq") changed it to:

 
-       /*
-        * For most of single queue controllers, there is only one irq vector
-        * for handling I/O completion, and the only irq's affinity is set
-        * to all possible CPUs.  On most of ARCHs, this affinity means the irq
-        * is handled on one specific CPU.
-        *
-        * So complete I/O requests in softirq context in case of single queue
-        * devices to avoid degrading I/O performance due to irqsoff latency.
-        */
-       if (rq->q->nr_hw_queues == 1)
-               blk_mq_trigger_softirq(rq);
-       else
-               rq->q->mq_ops->complete(rq);
+       blk_mq_trigger_softirq(rq);
 }

So to my understanding, we will always complete in a softirq.
