[PATCH 7/7] blk-mq: update comments on blk_mq_quiesce_queue()

From: Ming Lei <hidden>
Date: 2017-05-25 04:22:15
Subsystem: block layer, the rest · Maintainers: Jens Axboe, Linus Torvalds

Actually what we want to get from blk_mq_quiesce_queue()
isn't only to wait for completion of all ongooing .queue_rq().

In the typical context of canceling requests, we need to
make sure that the following is done in the dispatch path
before starting to cancel requests:
	- failed dispatched request is freeed
	- busy dispatched request is requeued, and the STARTED
	flag is cleared
