Both of them are most likely due to the conversion of virtio_blk
to the blk-mq code.

I've not seen the hang in my heavy xfstests testing, but that was a
slightly different codebase than what finally got in, so I'll try
to reproduce it once I get some spare QA cycles.

The missing stats should be solved by something like the patch below
(untested so far):


diff --git a/block/blk-mq.c b/block/blk-mq.c
