blk-mq: drain I/O when all CPUs in a hctx are offline
Most of blk-mq drivers depend on managed IRQ's auto-affinity to setup up queue mapping. Thomas mentioned the following point[1]: "That was the constraint of managed interrupts from the very beginning: The driver/subsystem has to quiesce the interrupt line and the associated queue _before_ it gets shutdown in CPU unplug and not fiddle with it until it's restarted by the core when the CPU is plugged in again." However, current blk-mq implementation doesn't quiesce hw queue before the last CPU in the hctx is shutdown. Even worse, CPUHP_BLK_MQ_DEAD is a cpuhp state handled after the CPU is down, so there isn't any chance to quiesce the hctx before shutting down the CPU. Add new CPUHP_AP_BLK_MQ_ONLINE state to stop allocating from blk-mq hctxs where the last CPU goes away, and wait for completion of in-flight requests. This guarantees that there is no inflight I/O before shutting down the managed IRQ. Add a BLK_MQ_F_STACKING and set it for dm-rq and loop, so we don't need to wait for completion of in-flight requests from these drivers to avoid a potential dead-lock. It is safe to do this for stacking drivers as those do not use interrupts at all and their I/O completions are triggered by underlying devices I/O completion.
