For some protocols like NVMe over Fabrics we need to be able to send
initialization commands to a specific queue.

Based on an earlier patch from Christoph Hellwig [off-list ref].

Why are we duplicating this code here? If NOWAIT isn't set, then we'll
always return a request. bt_get() will run the queue for us, if it needs
to. blk_mq_alloc_request() does this too, and I'm guessing that code was
just copied. I'll fix that up. Looks like this should just be:

	rq = __blk_mq_alloc_request(&alloc_data, rw);
	if (rq)
		return rq;

	blk_queue_exit(q);
	return ERR_PTR(-EWOULDBLOCK);

for this case.
