When a queue is dying or dead there is no point in calling blk_mq_run_hw_queues() in blk_mq_unquiesce_queue(); in fact, doing so might crash the machine as the queue structures are in the process of being deleted.

Hi Hannes, Please provide more context information. In the "dead" state the queue must be run to make sure that all requests that were queued before the "dead" state get processed. The blk_cleanup_queue() function is responsible for stopping all code that can run the queue after all requests have finished and before destruction of the data structures needed for request processing starts. Bart.
