I still think this should pass in the numa node instead of the hctx, and
allow node-local allocation for the old code as well. As mentioned earlier
initializing mq_flush_lock for the !mq case is harmless.


We also should document it where cleary somewhere that for devices that
have flushes enabled ->init_request can be called for more requests than
the queue depth, as drivers might allocate some sort of pool for them.
