I am completely lost about what you are talking about.

That is fine with me, but in case there is anything to testâ let me 
know. I do not promise quick responses tough, as I have been quite a bit 
overwhelmed with stuff lately.

Currently I run 4.17-rc7 without any blk-mq related patches and it 
appears to be free of hangs or stalls related to blk-mq.
