   - Fix a bug in the read request side request allocation caching
     (Pavel)

When there are no read queues read requests will be assigned a
default queue on allocation. However, blk_mq_get_cached_request() is not
prepared for that and will fail all attempts to grab read requests from
the cache. Worst case it doubles the number of requests allocated,
roughly half of which will be returned by blk_mq_free_plug_rqs().

It only affects batched allocations and so is io_uring specific.
For reference, QD8 t/io_uring benchmark improves by 20-35%.

The updating of 'bfqg-&gt;ref' should be protected by 'bfqd-&gt;lock', however,
during code review, we found that bfq_pd_free() update 'bfqg-&gt;ref'
without holding the lock, which is problematic:

1) bfq_pd_free() triggered by removing cgroup is called asynchronously;
2) bfqq will grab bfqg reference, and exit bfqq will drop the reference,
which can concurrent with 1).

Unfortunately, 'bfqd-&gt;lock' can't be held here because 'bfqd' might already
be freed in bfq_pd_free(). Fix the problem by using atomic refcount apis.

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.
