[PATCH 5/7] block: Remove superflous rcu_read_[un]lock_sched() in blk_queue_enter()

[Tejun Heo]

3a0a529971ec ("block, scsi: Make SCSI quiesce and resume work
reliably") added rcu_read_[un]lock_sched() to blk_queue_enter() along
with other changes but it doesn't seem to be doing anything.

blk_queue_enter() is called with @q - the pointer to the target
request_queue, so the caller obviously has to guarantee that @q can be
dereferenced, and inside the RCU-sched protected area, there's nothing
which needs further protection.

Let's remove the superflous rcu_read_[un]lock_sched().

Hello, Bart.

This came up while auditing percpu_ref users for problematic RCU
usages.  I couldn't understand what the RCU protection was doing.
It'd be great if you can take a look and tell me whether I missed
something.

Thanks.
