    blk-mq: introduce blk_mq_complete_request_sync() · 1b8f21b7

    In NVMe's error handler, follows the typical steps of tearing down
    hardware for recovering controller:
    
    1) stop blk_mq hw queues
    2) stop the real hw queues
    3) cancel in-flight requests via
    	blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter(tags, cancel_request, ...)
    cancel_request():
    	mark the request as abort
    	blk_mq_complete_request(req);
    4) destroy real hw queues
    
    However, there may be race between #3 and #4, because blk_mq_complete_request()
    may run q->mq_ops->complete(rq) remotelly and asynchronously, and
    ->complete(rq) may be run after #4.
    
    This patch introduces blk_mq_complete_request_sync() for fixing the
    above race.
