No need to store the request, you can trivially get at it using
blk_mq_rq_from_pdu().

Why do you need the dev pointer? You can always trivially get
it using req->queuedata.

Why not just pass ret as-is?

The upper layers take are of this check.

Having a helper to initialize a ubi_sgl would be nicer than having
to open code it ike here.

Why don't you move these calls into the work queue as well? The
queue_rq call would literally just become a queue_work call.

And given that this is a fairly common patter this should allow
us to refactor / optimize this case a bit later on.
