This reverts commit 0a30288da1aec914e158c2d7a3482a85f632750f, which
was a temporary fix for SCSI blk-mq stall issue.  The following
patches will fix the issue properly by introducing atomic mode to
percpu_ref.

Hello,

I pulled in block/for-linus into percpu/for-3.18 and reverted the temp
fix.  Will apply the patchset to implement the proper fix on top of
it.

Thanks.
