[ Upstream commit 632bfb6323799c087fcb4108dfe59518609667a7 ]

Blk-mq should call commit_rqs once 'bd.last != true' and no more
request will come(so virtscsi can kick the virtqueue, e.g.). We already
do that in 'blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list/blk_mq_try_issue_list_directly' while
list not empty and 'queued > 0'. However, we can seen the same scene
once the last request in list call queue_rq and return error like
BLK_STS_IOERR which will not requeue the request, and lead that list
empty but need call commit_rqs too(Or the request for virtscsi will stay
timeout until other request kick virtqueue).

We found this problem by do fsstress test with offline/online virtscsi
device repeat quickly.
