blk: Fix lock inversion between ioc lock and bfqd lock
Lockdep complains about lock inversion between ioc->lock and bfqd->lock:
bfqd -> ioc:
put_io_context+0x33/0x90 -> ioc->lock grabbed
blk_mq_free_request+0x51/0x140
blk_put_request+0xe/0x10
blk_attempt_req_merge+0x1d/0x30
elv_attempt_insert_merge+0x56/0xa0
blk_mq_sched_try_insert_merge+0x4b/0x60
bfq_insert_requests+0x9e/0x18c0 -> bfqd->lock grabbed
blk_mq_sched_insert_requests+0xd6/0x2b0
blk_mq_flush_plug_list+0x154/0x280
blk_finish_plug+0x40/0x60
ext4_writepages+0x696/0x1320
do_writepages+0x1c/0x80
__filemap_fdatawrite_range+0xd7/0x120
sync_file_range+0xac/0xf0
ioc->bfqd:
bfq_exit_icq+0xa3/0xe0 -> bfqd->lock grabbed
put_io_context_active+0x78/0xb0 -> ioc->lock grabbed
exit_io_context+0x48/0x50
do_exit+0x7e9/0xdd0
do_group_exit+0x54/0xc0
To avoid this inversion we change blk_mq_sched_try_insert_merge() to not
free the merged request but rather leave that upto the caller similarly
to blk_mq_sched_try_merge(). And in bfq_insert_requests() we make sure
to free all the merged requests after dropping bfqd->lock.
Fixes: aee69d78dec0 ("block, bfq: introduce the BFQ-v0 I/O scheduler as an extra scheduler")
