On second though, I don't think blk_put_queue() would be the right
place for might_sleep(), given we really only care about the *last*
refcount decrement to 0. So I'll move it to blk_release_queue().
Granted, at that point we are too late, and we'd get a splat about
this issue *iff* we really sleep. So yeah, I do suppose that forcing
this check there still makes sense.
