[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 64/64] blk-iolatency: fix IO hang due to negative inflight counter

[Sasha Levin]

From: Liu Bo <bo.liu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 8c772a9bfc7c07c76f4a58b58910452fbb20843b ]

Our test reported the following stack, and vmcore showed that
->inflight counter is -1.

The ->inflight counter may be negative (-1) if

1) blk-iolatency was disabled when the IO was issued,

2) blk-iolatency was enabled before this IO reached its endio,

3) the ->inflight counter is decreased from 0 to -1 in endio()

In fact the hang can be easily reproduced by the below script,

H=/sys/fs/cgroup/unified/
P=/sys/fs/cgroup/unified/test

echo "+io" > $H/cgroup.subtree_control
mkdir -p $P

echo $$ > $P/cgroup.procs

xfs_io -f -d -c "pwrite 0 4k" /dev/sdg

echo "`cat /sys/block/sdg/dev` target=1000000" > $P/io.latency

xfs_io -f -d -c "pwrite 0 4k" /dev/sdg

This fixes the problem by freezing the queue so that while
enabling/disabling iolatency, there is no inflight rq running.

Note that quiesce_queue is not needed as this only updating iolatency
configuration about which dispatching request_queue doesn't care.
