Liu reported that running certain parts of xfstests threw the
following error:

The issue is that we've got the software context pinned while
calling blk_flush_plug_list(), which flushes callbacks that
are allowed to sleep. btrfs and raid has such callbacks.

Flip the checks around a bit, so we can enable preempt a bit
earlier and flush plugs without having preempt disabled.

This only affects blk-mq driven devices, and only those that
register a single queue.
