This driver is for fairly obscure hardware, and has only seen random
drive-by changes after the maintainer stopped working on it in 2005
(about a year and a half after it was introduced).  It has some
"interesting" block layer interactions, so let's just drop it unless
anyone complains.

blk_cleanup_disk is nothing but a trivial wrapper for put_disk now,

Set the queue dying flag and call blk_mq_exit_queue from del_gendisk for
all disks that do not have separately allocated queues, and thus remove
the need to call blk_cleanup_queue for them.

Rename blk_cleanup_disk to blk_mq_destroy_queue to make it clear that
this function is intended only for separately allocated blk-mq queues.

This saves an extra queue freeze for devices without a separately
allocated queue.

Let the caller set it together with the end_io_data instead of passing
a pointless argument.  Note the the target code did in fact already
set it and then just overrode it again by calling blk_execute_rq_nowait.

We never checked for errors on add_disk() as this function
returned void. Now that this is fixed, use the shiny new
error handling.

A completion is used to notify the initial probe what is
happening and so we must defer error handling on completion.
Do this by remembering the error and using the shared cleanup
function.

The tags are shared and so are hanlded later for the
driver already.
