[ Upstream commit 49e4d04f0486117ac57a97890eb1db6d52bf82b3 ]
Dan reports the following smatch detected the following:
block/blk-cgroup.c:1863 blkcg_schedule_throttle() warn: sleeping in atomic context
caused by blkcg_schedule_throttle() calling blk_put_queue() in an
non-sleepable context.
blk_put_queue() acquired might_sleep() in 63f93fd6fa57 ("block: mark
blk_put_queue as potentially blocking") which transferred the might_sleep()
from blk_free_queue().
blk_free_queue() acquired might_sleep() in e8c7d14ac6c3 ("block: revert back
to synchronous request_queue removal") while turning request_queue removal
synchronous. However, this isn't necessary as nothing in the free path
actually requires sleeping.
It's pretty unusual to require a sleeping context in a put operation and
it's not needed in the first place. Let's drop it.
