As I have already mentioned two times, the comment above
blk_freeze_queue_start() should be made more clear. It should mention that
without that call blk_queue_enter() won't check the "dying" flag after it
has been set. If that is not mentioned in a comment the next person who
reads the blk_set_queue_dying() function will wonder why the
blk_freeze_queue_start() call is really needed and whether it can be removed.

Please fix the spelling in the above comment ("two read").
Thanks,
