Please see the above comment, especially in direct issue path, we have to
insert the request into sw/scheduler queue when queue is quiesced,
and these queued requests have to be dispatched out during unquiescing.

I considered to sleep the current context under this situation, but
turns out it is more complicated to handle, given we have very limited
queue depth, just let applications consumes all, then wait.

Thanks,
Ming
