We will stop hw queue and wait for completion of in-flight requests
when one hctx is becoming dead in the following patch. This way may
cause dead-lock for some stacking blk-mq drivers, such as dm-rq and
loop.

Add blk-mq flag of BLK_MQ_F_NO_MANAGED_IRQ and mark it for dm-rq and
loop, so we needn't to wait for completion of in-flight requests of
dm-rq & loop, then the potential dead-lock can be avoided.

Wouldn't it make more sense to have the flag name be like 
BLK_MQ_F_DONT_DRAIN_STOPPED_HCTX?

I did not think that blk-mq is specifically concerned with managed 
interrupts, but only their indirect effect.

nit: at this point in the series you're setting a flag which is never 
checked.

I am fine with either one, however it is easier for drivers to
recognize if this flag should be set, given BLK_MQ_F_NO_MANAGED_IRQ
is self-explained.

Also on the other side, this patchset serves a generic blk-mq fix
for managed IRQ issue, so it is reasonable for all drivers which
don't use managed IRQ to set the flag.

Yeah, I see, and this way is a bit easier for review purpose.
