If the 'hctx' isn't removed from cpuhp callback list, we can't reuse it,
otherwise use-after-free may be triggered.

This reverts commit be26ba96421ab0a8fa2055ccf7db7832a13c44d2.

Commit be26ba96421a ("block: Fix potential deadlock while freezing queue and
acquiring sysfs_loc") actually reverts commit 22465bbac53c ("blk-mq: move cpuhp
callback registering out of q-&gt;sysfs_lock"), and causes the original resctrl
lockdep warning.

So revert it and we need to fix the issue in another way.

For storing a value to a queue attribute, the queue_attr_store function
first freezes the queue (-&gt;q_usage_counter(io)) and then acquire
-&gt;sysfs_lock. This seems not correct as the usual ordering should be to
acquire -&gt;sysfs_lock before freezing the queue. This incorrect ordering
causes the following lockdep splat which we are able to reproduce always
simply by accessing /sys/kernel/debug file using ls command:

Prevent the above lockdep warning by acquiring -&gt;sysfs_lock before
freezing the queue while storing a queue attribute in queue_attr_store
function. Later, we also found[1] another function __blk_mq_update_nr_
hw_queues where we first freeze queue and then acquire the -&gt;sysfs_lock.
So we've also updated lock ordering in __blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues
function and ensured that in all code paths we follow the correct lock
ordering i.e. acquire -&gt;sysfs_lock before freezing the queue.

[   57.597905]  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

Prevent the above lockdep warning by acquiring -&gt;sysfs_lock before
freezing the queue while storing a queue attribute in queue_attr_store
function. Later, we also found[1] another function __blk_mq_update_nr_
hw_queues where we first freeze queue and then acquire the -&gt;sysfs_lock.
So we've also updated lock ordering in __blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues
function and ensured that in all code paths we follow the correct lock
ordering i.e. acquire -&gt;sysfs_lock before freezing the queue.

Registering and unregistering cpuhp callback requires global cpu hotplug lock,
which is used everywhere. Meantime q-&gt;sysfs_lock is used in block layer
almost everywhere.

It is easy to trigger lockdep warning[1] by connecting the two locks.

Fix the warning by moving blk-mq's cpuhp callback registering out of
q-&gt;sysfs_lock. Add one dedicated global lock for covering registering &amp;
unregistering hctx's cpuhp, and it is safe to do so because hctx is
guaranteed to be live if our request_queue is live.

We need to retrieve 'hctx' from xarray table in the cpuhp callback, so the
callback should be registered after this 'hctx' is added to xarray table.

<title>block: blk-mq: fix uninit-value in blk_rq_prep_clone and refactor</title>

<id>dcbb598e689e30d4636201d35582e167d1b8dfa4</id>
<content type='text'>
Fix an issue detected by the `smatch` tool:

block/blk-mq.c:3314 blk_rq_prep_clone() error: uninitialized
symbol 'bio'.

This patch refactors `blk_rq_prep_clone()` to improve code
readability and ensure safety by addressing potential misuse of
the `bio` variable:

- Move the bio_put(bio); call to the bio_ctr error handling block,
  which is the only place where it can be triggered.
- Move the bio variable into the __rq_for_each_bio loop scope.
  This change removes the need to set bio to NULL at the loop's
  end.

discussion on why bio remains uninitialized:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20241004141037.43277-1-surajsonawane0215@gmail.com

Summary of above discussion:
- I pointed out that `bio` can remain uninitialized if the
  allocation with `bio_alloc_clone` fails.
- Keith Busch explained that `bio` is initialized to `NULL` when
  `bio_alloc_clone()` fails, preventing uninitialized usage.
- John Garry questioned whether `rq_src-&gt;bio` being `NULL` could
  leave `bio` uninitialized. Keith clarified that in such cases,
  `bio` is not referenced, so it does not need initialization.
- Christoph Hellwig recommended code improvements:
 - move the bio_put to the bio_ctr error handling, which is the only
   case where it can happen
 - move the bio variable into the __rq_for_each_bio scope, which
   also removed the need to zero it at the end of the loop

These changes enhance code clarity, address static analysis tool
warnings, and make the function more maintainable.

Add requests to the tail of the list instead of the front so that they
are queued up in submission order.

Remove the re-reordering in blk_mq_dispatch_plug_list, virtio_queue_rqs
and nvme_queue_rqs now that the list is ordered as expected.

Replace the semi-open coded request list helpers with a proper rq_list
type that mirrors the bio_list and has head and tail pointers.  Besides
better type safety this actually allows to insert at the tail of the
list, which will be useful soon.
