4.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@xxxxxxx> commit d4acf3650c7c968f46ad932b9a25d1cc24cf4998 upstream. The blk_mq_delay_kick_requeue_list() function is used by the device mapper and only by the device mapper to rerun the queue and requeue list after a delay. This function is called once per request that gets requeued. Modify this function such that the queue is run once per path change event instead of once per request that is requeued.
