freeze before calling update_hr_hw_queues". It's not an exact revert as
it leaves the adjusting of hw queues only if the count changes.
I see that fc doesn't freeze the queues, so it obviously wrong to
unfreeze them. But is it correct to not freeze the queues?
nvme-fc is draining the queues in the error recovery path
(__nvme_fc_abort_outstanding_ios). There are no request in the queues
hence we don't have to freeze.

The only reason to keep the freeze/unfreeze in this path would be to
make it look alike the other transport. But it would be a no-op.
Yep.

And updated commit is :  88e837ed0f1f
