I just tested and confirmed the patch didn't fix the problem.

By the way, I think Ming is right about "So release not by wq just
reduces the chance, instead of fixing it completely.", and "move
blk_mq_debugfs_unregister() into blk_unregister_queue()" is a good
choice. However, blk_trace_shutdown() and blk_mq_exit_queue() also
remove some files or dirs, and they may need to move to
blk_unregister_queue().

I tested following patch fixes the problem, however I'm not sure if
move blk_trace_shutdown() and blk_mu_exit_queue() is ok or we should
just move debgfs-related part.
