block: Move blk_throtl_exit() call to blk_cleanup_queue()

Move blk_throtl_exit() in blk_cleanup_queue() as blk_throtl_exit() is
written in such a way that it needs queue lock. In blk_release_queue()
there is no gurantee that ->queue_lock is still around.

Initially blk_throtl_exit() was in blk_cleanup_queue() but Ingo reported
one problem.

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/10/23/86

  And a quick fix moved blk_throtl_exit() to blk_release_queue().

        block: fix use-after-free bug in blk throttle code

This patch reverts above change and does not try to shutdown the
throtl work in blk_sync_queue(). By avoiding call to
throtl_shutdown_timer_wq() from blk_sync_queue(), we should also avoid
the problem reported by Ingo.

blk_sync_queue() seems to be used only by md driver and it seems to be
using it to make sure q->unplug_fn is not called as md registers its
own unplug functions and it is about to free up the data structures
used by unplug_fn(). Block throttle does not call back into unplug_fn()
or into md. So there is no need to cancel blk throttle work.

In fact I think cancelling block throttle work is bad because it might
happen that some bios are throttled and scheduled to be dispatched later
with the help of pending work and if work is cancelled, these bios might
never be dispatched.

Block layer also uses blk_sync_queue() during blk_cleanup_queue() and
blk_release_queue() time. That should be safe as we are also calling
blk_throtl_exit() which should make sure all the throttling related
data structures are cleaned up.
