[PATCH 5.5 037/257] blk-mq: Fix a recently introduced regression in blk_mq_realloc_hw_ctxs()

[ Upstream commit d0930bb8f46b8fb4a7d429c0bf1c91b3ed00a7cf ]

q->nr_hw_queues must only be updated once it is known that
blk_mq_realloc_hw_ctxs() has succeeded. Otherwise it can happen that
reallocation fails and that q->nr_hw_queues is larger than the number of
allocated hardware queues. This patch fixes the following crash if
increasing the number of hardware queues fails:
