[PATCH v2 7/8] blk-mq: clarify dispatch may not be drained/blocked by stopping queue

From: Ming Lei <hidden>
Date: 2017-05-27 14:22:49
Subsystem: block layer, the rest · Maintainers: Jens Axboe, Linus Torvalds

BLK_MQ_S_STOPPED may not be observed in other concurrent I/O paths,
we can't guarantee that dispatching won't happen after returning
from the APIs of stopping queue.

So clarify the fact and avoid potential misuse.
