Re: [PATCH V2 4/5] blk-mq: re-submit IO in case that hctx is dead

When all CPUs in one hctx are offline, we shouldn't run this hw queue
for completing request any more.

So steal bios from the request, and resubmit them, and finally free
the request in blk_mq_hctx_notify_dead().

So what happens when all CPUs assigned to a hardware queue go offline?
Wouldn't blk_steal_bios() etc resend the I/O to the same hw queue,
causing an infinite loop?

Don't we have to rearrange the hardware queues here?

Cheers,

Hannes
