The name of 'busy' isn't very explicit about this case, and I
guess you mean the requests are dispatched to hardware, so
'dispatched' or sort of name may be more accurate.

During this small window, the request can be freed and reallocated
in another I/O path, then use-after-free is caused.

This way is easy to cause use-after-free, so as a debug function,
you can't affect the normal function.

But the new fixed blk_mq_quiesce_queue() can be used before calling
blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter() to avoid the race.
