[PATCH for-4.9 0/3] allow delayed requeue of blk-mq requests

I'd like to see these changes included during the 4.9 merge.  The
blk-mq change is a straight-forward switch from work_struct to
delayed_work and the addition of the blk_mq_delay_kick_requeue_list()
interface.  Jens, can you pick up this blk-mq changes (patch 1)?

These changes offer reduced CPU utilization during DM multipath's all
path down case (when 'queue_if_no_path' is enabled).  Please see each
patch's header for more details.

Mike Snitzer (3):
  blk-mq: introduce blk_mq_delay_kick_requeue_list()
  dm rq: add DM_MAPIO_DELAY_REQUEUE to delay requeue of blk-mq requests
  dm mpath: delay the requeue of blk-mq requests while all paths down
